Great list of some really useful little Python gems.  Being fairly new to Python I didn’t know quite a few of these.  Some of them, like dynamic iterator creation seem like the type of thing that could really accelerate your productivity, yet reduce errors, once you get comfortable with them.

Lots of good stuff there, but the one I love most:

Be so good they can’t ignore you- I first heard this quote from Marc Andreessen, but he stole it from Steve Martin. Just be so good with what you do that you can’t be ignored. You can surely get away with a boring product with no soul, but being so good you can’t ignore is much more powerful.

Given infinite time and infinite bandwidth I’d go read these right now, but until then it sure looks like a sweet place for inspiration.

Neat view from Kayak that shows all the places you could go from your home airport and for how much.

Django is rad.  App Engine is rad.  Both together is?

You can now set the colors for individual items as well as hide or show elements such as the roads, street or city names etc..  That’ll let us build views that focus more on the data and less on the map.

Great article by one of the CS gods that spans into far more than just Computer Science.  He elegantly explains always thinking of the worst case scenario leads to horrible decision making, complete paralysis, or both.

Making sure your site passes through all the various CSS guantlets can be a real pain.  This site lets you plug in a URL and get screenshots for your site across dozens of different OS and browser configurations.  Free yet priceless.

Great project which provides some base classes to implement Node based Django template tags.  So much clearer and more powerful to write template tags in this way as opposed to using the default Django classes.  I’m going to help fill out the documentation as my “thanks”.

Linked only because the two other solutions I found didn’t work, so maybe I can help boost the page rank for this one, which does.
