Another point I would add to this list is to not be afraid of reading the Django Source code. While the docs cover a lot, you can find a lot of hidden gems simply going through the source code - it is highly readable and most stuff is where

"There are two ways to progress : by letting everyone say everything they want, which has so far led to huge wars and a LOT of failed states" I don't agree with almost anything you said here, but the above statement can easily be contradict

As the homepage says, it's a clone of Jeremy Zawodny's Excel Spreadsheet ( http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/006851.html ) I've been using to help me lose weight. I built it mostly to learn App Engine and how to use a non relational D

Couldn't agree more. I tried losing weight without keeping track of my daily weight, and got nowhere. Then I happened upon Jeremy Zawodny's spreadsheet ( http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/006851.html ). Maintaining a daily record of m
