You run `virtualenv .` in your project folder and it will setup a virtual environment. To enter the virtual environment run `source bin/activate`. I don’t know about you, but I hate to see bin/ lib/ and other folders in my project directory, so I made a wrapper around virtualenv in my ZSH scripts. Why not just make the virtualenv elsewhere (I use ~/virtualenvs/)? Also, how about django-extensions? I don't know what I'd do without runserver_plus and shell_plus.
