This is why I like what the guys at Onemonth are doing. The Python/Django course guides you through building a Yelp style app while the Rails and Swift courses build a Pinterest / Instagram clone.

I've done both the Rails and Django courses and while I'm nowhere near being experienced in either, I'm far more motivated to keep learning the languages than I have been after doing any other course/tutorial

This is why I don't write Haskell tutorials. I am learning and would love to write them, but I don't want to pollute the space when more experienced Haskellers can write better ones. I just need to be patient :-). Actually I do write them but just keep them on my dropbox (private) for a memory refresh on a topic later on.
