This is slightly off topic, but does anyone else find the AWS dashboard impenetrable? You have to hunt for each of the services you need to add, configuration is very well hidden and I can never find my S3 keys. I had to bookmark the link from the email because otherwise I kept going around in circles. I haven't used EC2 yet just because I'm intimidated by the complexity of that management interface...

Is it just me?



No you're definitely not the only one. My company uses EC2 for our production environment and I loathe the management interface with a passion. Amazon should definitely hire a UI expert to give that damn thing a face lift.


It's a mix really, some of it works beautifully, some of it leaves me thinking "I like this but... why haven't they tweaked x" and some really is just horrible.
