Djangosites Updates

Djangosites.org was launched last week as a new way to show off the many websites that are built with Django but that don't get much fanfare within the community as they aren't technology based. I've received some fantastic feedback from the community so have improved the RSS feeds and access to info about source-code.

Introducing Djangosites.org

Over the past few weeks I've been working on a website to allow the Django community to showcase what's out there that's built using the fantastic Django framework. With input from others in the community, the site is now live. I introduce to you, DjangoSites.org

Using The WebThumb API with Python

There is a fantastic free service available to create screenshots of websites using an API at bluga.net. The problem is, there are no samples in Python. As part of a project I'm working on with the Django community, I've written a simple Python interface to the bluga.net webthumb API which lets you pass in a URL and receive back a screenshot.
