			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>stumbled across this wonderfully nerdy talk on Python. The intriguing part is the fact that this is a <em>googler</em> talking to <em>googlers</em>. As I have gone through and experimented my RoR book, and a friend mentioned Python the other day, it reignited my interest.<br />

So I am thinking I should get myself some Python literature. If you have any recommendations as to books and what resources to use, please do tell.<br />
I will install a Django on my server as soon as I get the time and get going&#8230;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://pyamf.org"><img class="alignleft" style="margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" title="pyamf.org" src="http://vevmedia.net/blog/wp-content/2009/02/py_amf.png" alt="" width="309" height="110" /></a>A few months ago I read a post about <a href="http://vevmedia.net/blog/2008/11/13/news-from-the-valley/" target="_self">the future of AMFPHP</a> and decided to start looking for alternate back-end solutions that I want to explore and implement in future productions. <a href="http://www.pyamf.org" target="_blank">PYAMF</a> quickly crystallized as the best candidate. I am especially impressed by the speed of data-transfer that this solution promises.</p>
<p>As I was already playing around with my pyamf installation, I saw that the new (and very impressive) site of the <a href="http://www.nfb.ca/" target="_blank">National Film Board of Canda</a> is built on the very same technology. But there is another component, <a href="http://www.djangoproject.com/" target="_blank">Django</a>. Since I, admittedly have close to no experience to working with Python, I am really starting from scratch. Taking it one step at a time. So far I am through setting up Python, mod_python and installing django itself. So now I am setting up <a href="http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/" target="_blank">my very first Django app</a>.<a href="http://www.djangoproject.com/"><img class="alignleft" style="margin: 5px 20px;" title="djangoproject.com" src="http://vevmedia.net/blog/wp-content/2009/02/djangoproject_logo.gif" alt="" width="117" height="41" /></a><br />
Once I have wrapped my head around the basics of the wonderful world of Python and Django, then the time will have come to integrate that new knowledge with pyamf. I will be posting my progress in easily digestible pyamf tutorials (with a touch of django), since I see that there is a desperate lack there-off so far. I do not mean to step on any toes over on <a href="http://pyamf.org" target="_blank">pyamf.org</a>, but the documentation/tutorial section leaves a thing or two to be desired. So, at least for me, the initial learning curve seems rather steep to me.</p>
<p>But then again, that&#8217;s just me&#8230;</p>
