Google Previews App Engine 167
An anonymous reader writes "Google is giving a handful of web programmers the opportunity to create and run their own Web applications on their servers.

'The goal is to make it easy to get started with a new Web app, and then make it easy to scale when that app reaches the point where it's receiving significant traffic and has millions of users," said Google product manager, Paul McDonald in a blog post."
