Google App Engine giveth and then takes it away….

Google App Engine no worky

So I received my invitation to Google’s App Engine last night, actually I got three of them, but their not invite codes or anything like that, the invites are tied to your email address so don’t bother asking me to give you one.

One major problem though, when I click on the link in the emails, up pops a web page telling me space is limited and asking me if I would like to be notified when more space becomes available.

Umm, I thought thats what the email was all about, the subject even says “Invitation to try Google App Engine”. Something not working quite right in Google land today……

I guess it’s back to the waiting game. I supposed I can use this time to brush up on my Python skills.

UPDATE - May 6 2008

Nick Johnson suggeested a different login URL for those who signed up for Google App Engine with an and email on a Google Hosted Domain, which is what I did. I use Googel Hosted Gmail for realdimensions.com.

http://appengine.google.com/a/yourdomain

This worked perfect for me, I’m not logged in and working on my obligatory “hello World” app. I’ll post more when I have something to show (and say).

Thanks for the suggestion and link Nick!!!!

    I presume you signed up to the waiting list with a Google Apps domain. In that case, you need to sign in at http://appengine.google.com/a/yourdomain instead of just appengine.com/.
