How Learning Flask, Python and Google App Engine helped me make the website My3Pages.appspot.com

Hi all.  Over the past few months, I've been learning Python on Google App Engine.  Why?  Well after attending some of the Google App Engine Developer group presentations, I noticed that most of the presenters used Python in their examples.

Being a typical programmer I just wanted to be able to create my own website quickly and that's when one of my colleagues recommended using the Flask Python Framework.  I have never looked back.  It has excellent documentation and from what I hear its a whole lot easier to set up and learn then Django.  I will eventually try to tackle Django in the future, but in the meantime, I'm really enjoying how easy Flask (and Python) make it easy to create websites.  On top of this you can create Flask websites on Google's App Engine.

In the next few days, I'm going to be putting up some How To Guides on using Flask on Google App Engine.  In the meantime, you can check out what I created in 3 weeks.  It's still a work in progress, but I hope you can see how easy it is to create:
