While trying to create a decent comment system for this blog I was faced with a bunch of choices. It seems everyone has a different idea of the best way to get this done. In the end I decided to go with a WYSIWYM editor. This was new to me since StackOverflow started using it. Basically, its not a full blown WYSIWYG editor, but much simpler, and fit my needs quite well.
So I finally bit the bullet and made a blog. This started as more of an effort for me to learn Django. However, I quickly realized I wanted a place to post about all the things I am learning along the way. So this place will tend to be about coding Python, Django, jQuery, and the occasional personal post.
What better for a first post than talk about my experience writing my first Django app, so here it goes in my finest form. I don't claim to be a Django wiz, these are just the thoughts I currently have after reading all the documentation, taking it in to the best of my abilities and applying it to make this website. Take the below comments with a grain of salt.
I am a software engineer working in the Boston area. I love Python, and I love tinkering with code during my spare time.
