The Why

  On Apr. 7, 2008, the ever great google reveals world's biggest secret that she is ready to host any kind of web application in the unique contain which is called Google App Engine.

  To a web developer, this kind of movement is no doubt revolutionary. We used to do a whole lot of worthless things such as to buy a server, to install an OS, to choose a language and a framework. Now we don't need to compare the pros and cons among all the choices. A simple but tremendous solution is right there waiting.

  Once upon a time, i watched a video about Guido van Rossum's talk about his job at Google involving a code review system using Django's template framework. This really starts an debate over which one is the right python web framework. And before long, with the launch of App Engine including a naturely built in Django support. To a guy make the right choise, nothing can be better than this.

  From what i can imagine right now, there will be millions of new application taking shape on the this platform. Tracking all these new apps down should be quite exciting. And that's the reason why i took some time to set up this website. I hope that in one year from now, i could collect enough applications to cover all the aspects about online activities and all of them based on this simple but powerful engine.

  Google has offered us his engine, so let's burn it with oil!

 

Talk to me, plz!
