Google App Engine Introduction

We will finish the class this semester by learning a little bit about the Google App Engine. The app engine is a hosting service provided by Google. You write web applications using Java or Python in your local machine and then copy them over to google for hosting. An important advantage of this method is that Google will take care of scaling up your application so that, whether you have 10 or 10 million users, you don't have to do anything differently. This is also useful if your site ever appears on one of the popular new aggregators (digg.com).

To get started you should watch the video below by Wednesday, April 15:
