Django in the appengine

I am planning to blog a walk-through in creating and hosting a django based app in the google appengine.

Before I start rambling on my own, let me give you a couple of links which got me going.

• http://www.djangobook.com/ - if you are new to django start here. It is *the* place to start.
• http://diveintopython.org/ - wait a second, do you know python? if not start here ;)
• http://www.allbuttonspressed.com/projects/djangoappengine - if you know python and django, this is the place to go
• http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/django-nonrel.html - the official article

If you are unable to make much sense of the third and fourth links, come back here! I'm going to keep this damn simple.

Lets do the doing!!!

Doing vs learning and reading

Do.

Stop reading, learning and planning.

Its not that those steps are entirely useless. They have *some* value. But, they all exist only to enable one to *do*, to *execute*.

I had been planning to do something for some time - I read, learned, and what not. But, nothing really helped when i actually did. I found out that I learned whatever i needed as I did the doing. And as the old saying goes, planning is essential, but, plans are useless.

So stop reading this - go and do!

Blog Revived

I am going to start blogging actively again, expect a bit of Django, firefox, linux, psychology (that i noticed in the past year while working)...
