[Python-talk] Google app engine

[Tom GTalk]

Kent,
Well..thanks for the input. Glad to hear it.

I am looking at the business side from Google's vantage point. It's obvious
to me that Google makes big bucks from their 'analytics', their ad-sense,
and pop-up ads that generates their revenue. I only read the article and
have no coding experience with GAE. It looks great from the techie
standpoint.
But...
You can see what some people are thinking about GAE
here<http://news.google.com/news?complete=1&hl=en&q=google+apps+benefit+to+google&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=news_result&resnum=4&ct=title>
.
Google doesn't do 'stuff for nothing'. There's always a business reason.
