Listen to FireAngel. He built one of the greatest Drupal sites of all time (fire, how's the science news game these days?).
There's an abandoned Drupal project called Memetracker that would leverage your Python skills AND make the world a better place if someone took it over.
Http:// drupal.org/project/memetracker
It's an open source reverse engineer of the Techmeme engine that gathers, filters, clusters, and ranks news. The original maintainers got it 50% finished before leaving for a startup. I've managed to get a private instance running that keeps me up to speed on what's in the news in Chicago. Even in it's primitive state, it tells me new things about the world I live in every day.
Imagine if anyone could start a techmeme for their neighborhood? They're industry? Their interest? The world would be a better place. We'd all be smarter for it.
We just need a good hacker to pick up the pieces.
