Blazemeter is JMeter in the cloud

From the "why didn't I think of this" department. These guys took JMeter, the ubiquitous Java test tool, and put it in the cloud. When I have used JMeter before that was definitely a pain point, setting up all the distributed JMeter instances (which, I think used RMI to communicate which is always fun).

I just wonder how useful this is for QA testing though, since most folks have their QA instance internal instead of publicly accessible.

I wonder what other open source tools are being "cloud-ified"?
