Google released Google App Engine, a “developer tool that enables you to run your web applications on Google’s infrastructure” (which is a fancy way of saying your web app is hosted on their servers, using their processing power and storage). The service is a basically a competitor to Amazon Web Services, except that (in classic Google manner) it is still in beta and free. Who knows how it will go, but the first couple of days stirred up quite a bit of ire amongst developers. Long live the Googleplex!
