After seeing this post, I remembered that they gave me a beta account a while ago. With some source I already had, tied to another db on another host, I was able to get http://fuel.dustincurtis.com up and working on Heroku within about 10 minutes. And 5 of those minutes were spent fixing a bug that was my fault.

Heroku is really, really awesome. It automatically detects the hostnames for your db in database.yml and corrects them, loads the schema, and just makes everything work, all automatically. You don't need to make any changes at all. I am still kind of amazed at how easy that was.
