## Pixverse

Pixverse, recently acquired by Hi5, chose App Engine because it made development easy and hassle free. Pixverse has two apps, Pix Chat and Pix Wall, both built on App Engine. Pix Chat lets you chat with friends across the web within your profile page. Pix Wall gives you a "wall" on your profile where friends can leave notes, post pictures, add stickers. PixChat was ported to App Engine in under 3 hours.
