The backend for starmakerstudios.com and the various applications 
distributed by StarMaker Interactive are primarily run by web2py on GAE.  
In addition to the things Jonathan lists in his message, i love the support 
of this community - finding bugs, submitting patches, and generally keeping 
me up and running much better than things we are paying for!

So we have iOS (and in the coming months Android) apps talking to our 
web2py/GAE backend:
 - getting data to run the client
 - post user-generated data back to the server
 - no stats, we are using other tools for that cause GAE + stats == fail!
 - drive the website
