Google App Engine is a developer tool that enables you to run your web applications on Google’s infrastructure. The goal is to make it easy to get started with a new web application, and then make it easy to scale when that app reaches the point where it’s receiving significant traffic and has millions of users.
Google App Engine enables you to build web applications on the same scalable systems that power Google applications. It also provides an API for authenticating your users. If you choose to use this, anyone with a valid Google Account may sign in your application. It saves you some time on building users registration and managing users accounts. At the moment, every Google App Engine application can use up to 500MB of persistent storage and enough bandwidth and CPU for 5 million monthly page views which I think it is more than enough for a startup.
This is only a preview release of Google App Engine. For now, account registrations are limited to the first 10,000 developers, and applications are restricted to the free account limits. Go and grab your account now!

Looks like it could be interesting. I was added to the wait list, so maybe its full already
10.000 Users reached, sign up is closed
“Unfortunately, space is limited during Google App Engine’s preview release. As we expand, we’ll invite more developers, but for now you’ll have to wait”
I signed up as soon as I heard about it, I’m now on the wait list too
To be fair I don’t know python yet, so I’ve downloaded the SDK (which everyone can do), and I’ll play with it in the sandbox.
of course signup is filled, this was on techcrunch 2 days ago, why so slow webappers ?
also python is just the first language, php, ruby etc will be added

We are sorry that we are a bit late because we were busy at organizing the 20 DreamTemplate Memberships Give Away Contest. Sorry again for the delay.
