As someone who within the last two weeks picked up app engine and created an MVP of my own http://www.pubcontweets.com, I can not only relate to your story but also applaud you for sharing the it as well as your code. Thanks.

Stupid question: what does MVP stand for here?

Microsoft Valued Professional. I'm building one too. They're real fun to play with though easy to anger.

I totally agree. Getting something out in few weeks is amazing especially if you have a day job. I too released my first project http://caniafforditnow.com/ and it took around 2 weeks to get it out. But I had some ruby on rails experience.
