Django - starting from ground zero - any advice?

I am new to Python/Django and have been hacking away happily with it. Any good tutorials out there that google isn't picking up in the first few pages or so? I know it's not as popular as Rails (yet!) to have crazy books with scratch to painted up pretty sites, but any good learn by doing examples out there (besides the few obvious first few pages of google and the Django official book). Bonus: If you are such a passionate python/django hacker, why don't you share with us your wonderful tutorial skills and write a b0|0k

My current comprehension level:- Damaged by Java, love at first sight with python. Hungry for more django.

Some more..lots more at http://del.icio.us/tag/django.

I also like the APress book Definitive Guide to Django by Adrian & Jacob.

Unless you're already a Python whizz, "Python Essential Reference" is a must.

I found poking around inside Satchmo incredibly helpful for finding quality code examples. (http://www.satchmoproject.com/).

Other than that, just do the tutorial on the djangoproject site, and subscribe to the django-users group on google groups.

have fun!

edit: Also there's a feed called the django aggregator. A little noisy at times, but worth scanning through couple of days: http://www.djangoproject.com/community/

The best way to learn is by example. This is a good way to start. http://www.7days7apps.com/

Get the code here using svn:

svn checkout http://7days7apps.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 7days7apps-read-only

I like the post and the replies. Hacker News seems to be a really good forum for inquiries of this nature.

But what on earth is "Damaged by Java" supposed to convey? I guess you find Python with Django to suit your particular needs better than Java, no reason to play down the latter though.
