[Baypiggies] Newbie-ish type questions...

Hello,
I've been creating a growing number of type functions of the form:
def is_list(l):
return type(l) is list
def is_string(s):
return isinstance(s, basestring)
def is_iter(i):
return hasattr(i, "next") and hasattr(i, "__iter__")
...etc., etc.
I feel like I must of missed something when I learned Python. Is
there a simple call I'm missing for
these? Does this get better in 3.0?
