Detail:
Here I give a 30 minute tour of all the main Python resources that a
programmer should know about.  This is the kind of introduction I'd
give to any new Python programmer when they ask me 'what's out there?'.

Resources covered include the main Python site, Tutorials, Cheeseshop,
ShowMeDo's Python videos, the Cookbook, DiveIntoPython, Daily Python,
several new-programmer blogs, comp.lang.python, books (Beginning
Python, Python in a Nutshell, Dive Into Python, Cookbook) and
five of the larger Python projects.

About ShowMeDo.com:
Free videos (we call them ShowMeDos) showing you how to do things.
The videos are made by us and our users, for everyone.  38 videos
for Python, 71 in total, and the collection is growing.

We'd love to have more contributions - would you share what you know?

The founders,
Ian Ozsvald, Kyran Dale
