For cool Python coroutines with networking code, have a look at Eventlet. I'm using it for a lot of my server code; it makes server-side socket programming dead-simple to understand.

I will be thrilled if Flash stopped causing Safari to crash. I'd be even more thrilled if Flash didn't make the CPU fans roar like a jet engine.
