Definitely makes sense to put static resources on Amazon S3 or Google Datastore, and I do use those resources for other toy projects and at work. However, I like having my site on shared hosting with an Apache server because I get to play around with things like .htaccess configuration, or run little experiments in a very low stakes environment. It's worth the ~$10 a month to have a space to mess around in. If I mess up, I'll learn something from it and more than likely no one will notice. :)
