Rock the Fat Knot

I’ve been reading Simon Willison’s blog for quite a while now. He frequently posts interesting ideas and links. Yesterday, I noticed that he had a link to videos from DjangoCon 2008 on YouTube. So far, I’ve watched Schema Evolution and Reusable Apps. I learned a lot from both videos. I’ve only been working with Django for a few months (mostly for this blog) and I’m really enjoying it. I think it’s really cool that they’ve posted videos from the Django conference so people that couldn’t attend (the conference or a particular talk) can check them out (and learn something). Living in rural South Carolina, there are not (currently) a lot of local opportunities to exchange ideas with other python developers. I hope that more (python related) conferences follow Django’s lead and post conference videos. Great job!
