Because I don’t want to be hooked into the (proprietary) Google stack (Python, Django, BigTable, GoogleOS) just yet, I prefer using Amazon’s Web Services a.k.a. AWS (EC2, S3, SQS, SimpleDB, etc).
I don't understand this statement given that 2/4 of the things he mentions in the Google stack are open source whereas none of the AWS ones are.

If I had to guess, I'd say that his issue is that Google requires you to use a particular language, whereas Amazon doesn't? You're right, it's odd.
