Believe it or not I've stumbled upon your blog before in searching for some answers to questions touched on in this post. I must say your blog was a big motivator based on the fact we're both young and non-MBA business guys looking to make our mark in the tech/startup world.

This post was very PRO python/django... other posts I've searched on HN have been pro Ruby/Rails. The best piece of advice I've gotten is to try both, I burned down 1/2 the entry rails book I ordered... Loved it(or maybe I was just excited to create some extreme novice terminal program telling me how many characters are in my full name). Tonight I'm going to attack the Learnpythonthehardway tutorial and then decide.

Do you feel like you're coming along quickly? Enjoying yourself thus far? PS I plan on blogging about this endeavor.
