Can anyone give examples of large sites running on Google App Engine at the moment?
If you can please give rough estimate of traffic and how long it has been live for.
And any significant periods of downtime if any.
Thanks Ron

App Engine supports the following scaling types, which controls how and when instances are created: Automatic (default) Basic. Manual.
App Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform for developing and hosting web applications at scale. You can choose from several popular languages, libraries, and frameworks to develop your apps, and then let App Engine take care of provisioning servers and scaling your app instances based on demand.
App Engine attempts to keep manual and basic scaling instances running indefinitely. However, at this time there is no guaranteed uptime for manual and basic scaling instances.
Wolfire Games posted a rather glowing review of their experience using App Engine to serve the Humble Bundle. They served 3.4 million pageviews over 12 days.
Jaiku runs on App Engine.
They posted case studies a while back for BuddyPoke, Pixverse and Hyperic.
Earth Hour runs on App Engine and apparently served 450 hits per second during the event.
TweetDeck uses App Engine for sending mail and serving recommendations.
The White House uses Google Moderator, which runs on App Engine, for Open for Questions. They may run on a different set of servers, though.
As for downtime, all scheduled and unscheduled outages are documented on the App Engine Downtime Notify group.

I found following list from this link: http://www.pagerank.eu.com/www/theblaze.com . Their IP addresses show they are running on App Engine.
