Finally, I got my Google Application Engine Account

About two months waiting after Google released its GAE web hosting platform, finally I got my account registered on GAE. It's really nice that now I have a web ground to play with:
  • Python and Django
  • Dojo and Ajax
  • ArcGIS Server 9.3 REST APIs
  • Google Map APIs
At present, I am spending my spare time to try to create an online mapping application, iMap, which is based on AGS 9.3 REST APIs and Dojo. Of course, Python and Django are the power engine to drive these widgets. I have got a couple of lines code deployed to my GAE host: http://xdev.appspot.com
I will try to log all learning and pitfalls here down the road to get something meaningful up and running.
