I attended the Google Appengine Hackathon yesterday and was quite impressed with appengine as a platform for developing web applications.  Some of the benefits our engineering crew will appreciate are: python is much lovelier than php, the development environment is quite simple, and deployment is a breeze.  Say goodbye to Apache.

Benefits that clients will enjoy? Increased server reliability and easier scalability.

If you’re interested in working on a bunch of projects built on appengine, twitter @kortina.  We’re always looking to meet new engineers and have lots of work to do in the coming weeks.
