My project is a forum hosting service.  I have it up in demo mode at:

http://support.fuzedtest.appspot.com/

The demo is limited by the free quota, but you can still create and manage 
your own forum, register for a forum, etc.  This won't be the final 
location: it will be abandoned once the project officially goes live.  But 
right now I'm wondering how efficient it will be (and conversely how 
expen$ive it will be).  I spent some significant time trying to optimize 
datastore interactions and wonder if it was time well spent (that is, I 
wonder if I did a good job).  Some of the discussions on cost have me 
worried that it'll just cost too much to run.  Hope not.  And in any case, 
there's more I can do with caching, etc.

It went through several phases, including changing from JDO to Objectify, 
Spring to Guice, integrating Apache Shiro, Master/Slave to HRD, leveraging 
GWT, working within the limitations of the GAE SSL support ... hope the new 
SSL support is released soon.

With all of that and many other unexpected issues, I think I spend quite a 
bit more time on "infrastructure" than on features.  Hopefully that trend 
will reverse. I'm sure I'll have to fix and enhance the infrastructure 
part, but I'd rather spend more time adding features people like.

Anyway, stop by and bang on it if you feel like it.  It'll be interesting 
to see if and when it blows the quota. :)
