I'm gonna work on my Jekyll-in-python project I started a few weeks ago: http://github.com/mapleoin/pyblee/tree/master . And while I'm at it, I'll also be improving my blogging.

#74Nothing spectacular but I'm going to try my first go at using PyGTK as I finish up a very simple command-line ftp uploader. The api is almost done, then I'll just wrap the GUI around it. I've only worked on it for a few hours but have learned a lot about Python in terms of file/directory scanning, ftp, and threading.
Apart from that, I'm just taking the time to get a simple portfolio/resume site up. Working full time during the year makes it hard to get time for these things.

Very cool idea. Do you have a URL for it yet? I'd like to bookmark it to check back in the future... :)
Follow me on twitter http://twitter.com/bflora I'll announce on there. Looks like we're going to build it at the eventual live URL so I'd rather not give that out just yet. My buddy's doing all the heavy lifting on this one. I'm just tracking down shape files and representative listings and so forth.

I find your site very useful. If you'd like some SEO advice shoot me an IM sometime (AIM: StanleyShilov).
Your comment scores 98% on my spam detector.
Haha, I can see why you would say that. What I was trying to convey was that from an SEO standpoint, your site fails miserably. You need to change your title tags to be more keyword specific, and move your wiki to a subdirectory instead of a subdomain (same goes for the blog).
