Progress?

So anyway, I haven’t done much on my webapp lately, but now I’ve decided to pull my finger out. I originally started playing around with Google AppEngine for the back-end, but I realized a couple of things.

First, I’m not going to get very far, nor learn very much, just by copying and tweaking Google’s example code.

Second, using AppEngine ties you in to Google. You can’t easily move elsewhere. So I figured I’d be better off not going that route.

So I’ve decided to take a step back and refresh my programming “skills”. On the recommendation of my friend Idan, I’m working my way through Learn Python the Hard Way. Which I’m rather enjoying. It’s not really a Python book. It’s more like an introductory programming book that happens to use Python.

We’ll see where it leads…
