Google's App Store

Google recently announced the launch of a "App Store". Initially I was excited by the prospect of web application developers competing for customers on a platform like Google's App Engine.

Turns out its focused on Android (the mobile phone operating system from Google) apps. I guess this is to "keep up with the Joneses" - i.e. Apple with its iPhone store.

That's fine too, but I have to believe that at some point there will be a web app store clearing house for web services. Wouldn't that be nice?
