Yep, Google App Engine ran out of quota while I was asleep.

I have many GAE apps and when you enable billing, each app puts I think a $2 weekly charge on your card. To avoid spamming my books with dozens of tiny charges I turned off the billing for less popular ones like my blog. D'oh.

Additionally I had commented out memcache in the blog for some reason. Free quota would have been enough if it wasn't for that mistake.

Bemmu, Google recently removed the $2/month minimum charge when you have billing enabled.

Have a look at http://googleappengine.blogspot.com/2013/04/app-engine-177-r...

Thanks for telling us a bit about yourself, it felt very personal :)
