I've just put together a blog post on installing nginx, php-fpm and mysql on a Ubuntu instance on Amazon's EC2.
This is will worth playing with as you can use the free tier without spending a penny for your first year.
I'm sure this will come in handy to a couple of you.

Nice post, didnt know about that free tier, shame I'm already a customer 
Not a criticism just a comment - but why not sqlite instead of mysql? Just seems more logical to me given the usage of nginx and phpfpm.

Good point, however in my project I plan to use multiple servers with master/slave replication so mysql is the best option.

sqlite has a poor performance when it runs in production env, and also im not sure about its thread safety and thread race issues
amazon ec2 is nice untill your transfer rate doesnt get too high, a dedicated server might be many times cheaper
