Google Apps: Working Example

Like many people I am fascinated with the idea of hosting applications in the "cloud". The concept is great and sounds reminiscent of a William Gibson novel, which is probably what makes it attractive. However, as with many other IT professionals, I am far from convinced about using it to host business applications. It will certainly be interesting to see how the market develops.

In the meantime I have managed to get a Google Apps account and have got the same application up and running. You can see it at http://cth00001.appspot.com. Full details of the application can be found on the Google help pages at http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/gettingstarted/.
