Python and Java - A Side by Side Comparison
By Steve Ferg
A programmer can be significantly more productive in Python than in Java. How much more productive? The most widely accepted estimate is 5-10 times. On the basis of my own personal experience with the two languages, I agree with this estimate.

Python 101 - Introduction to Python

Python is a high-level general purpose programming language. Because code is automatically compiled to byte code and executed, Python is suitable for use as a scripting language, Web application implementation language, etc. Because Python can be extended in C and C++, Python can provide the speed needed for even compute intensive tasks.

Google Sitemaps
By Tony Lawrence
Google is now letting web sites submit an xml file that lists urls and some information about how often the pages change, and how important the page is relative to other pages. Basically, it gets you to do part of the work for them - which we would hope helps everyone.

wxHTML for Beginners
By Abhijit Belapurkar
Many applications use HTML for reporting and online help, among other things. Embedding a Web browser in your application eliminates the need to worry about which browser a client uses to view your pages, and also allows you to create custom tags that tie the HTML page back to your application. For example, for the help system in an IDE, a user could browse a function reference where you have created custom tags, and when the user clicks on the function name, the function call could be inserted into the user's code.
