New AppAware Website online

Andrea Girardello and Andreas Budde have worked hard on releasing also viewable version of AppAware (showing you the current top apps based on users' installation events) on the web, see the result:
Thanks to the great adoption of AppAware by Android users our own server could not cope with the 130.000 events being shared by 55.000 users daily. Thus, we have moved out to the Amazon cloud. It's going to be an interesting experiment whether we can cover these costs by the advertisements displayed on appaware.org. We have already earned $1.39, so please keep on clicking onto the ads;)

Another interesting experience: There is the first appaware clone, see here, having the same features, same look and feel - just it doesn't work so far;)
