Hideley-ho Python People! So we've finally overcome "just-one-more-feature-itis" and decided it's time to announce ourselves to the world. So, without further ado, but with much pomp and fanfare, may we proudly present: http://www.pythonanywhere.com PythonAnywhere! A web-based python console, development environment, and hosting service, all rolled into one, and featuring a snake made out of Python chevrons. Oh yes. You can find out more from our screencasts, on the front page (be sure to check out the alternative versions too), but in brief: - it's a web-based console, with Pythons 2.6, 2.7, 3.2, IPython, pypy... and Bash! - it's got a syntax-highlighting web-based editor, and each user gets 500MB of storage - and we offer FREE web hosting for WSGI apps, with sqlite or MySQL backends. Hmmm. Browser-based Python... What the heck is the point of that, I hear the cynics amongst you ask. WELL: - you can suspend and resume console sessions from any browser or PC - you can access and run your Python code anywhere you go, without needing to install anything - a friend's house, an internet cafe in Thailand, your jailhouse library's computer, wherever it may be. - you can schedule automated tasks to run on our servers, any time of day or night, without needing to waste your own electrickery. - and you can host and deploy web apps, without having to worry about installing packages, configuring web servers, firewalls, or, indeed, *paying for it*. So come check it out! I absolutely, positively, cast-iron-guarantee that, not only will you not be disappointed, but you will be literally* blown away. If you're not, I hereby authorise you, without any reservation, to tweet angrily about it. http://www.pythonanywhere.com/ See you soon! ~<:>>>=== Harry * not literally. -- Harry Percival Developer harry@resolversystems.com +44 (0) 20 3051 2751 PythonAnywhere - full python dev & hosting, in your browser http://www.pythonanywhere.com/ 17a Clerkenwell Road, London EC1M 5RD, UK VAT No.: GB 893 5643 79 Registered in England and Wales as company number 5467329.
