The lack of any real evangelism is hurting App Engine.
If Google was doing a better job highlighting companies or projects using the service, posting interesting articles, actually improving the service based on feedback -- they might have gained more traction by now.
They are wholly inconsistent, the last blog post was a month ago.
You can't just launch a service and wait for ... magic. You'd think that Goog would understand this.
App Engine isn't dead by far, but it could be a much bigger player in the cloud space if someone at Google would wake up.

The platform (despite its limitations) is extremely easy to work on and they seem to be implementing features & fixing bugs at a good pace. They also hold a bi-monthly IRC chat with developers.
