Yahoo! Developer Network - Python Developer Center
I like Python a lot. Python and Ruby are my two favorite programming languages. I have been using Python off and on for almost a decade.
It is very handy for working with text files, and I find I have to do that a lot. Not all the time but kind of in bursts.
Also, it is a very handy way to automate things I need to do with databases, display some info, create/modify some test data.
There are other ways to do it but I have found Python very convenient. Since there is a Java implementation, Jython, it can use JDBC drivers for instance.
Well, it is not exactly a secret that Yahoo and Google have parts of their systems written in Python.
Now Yahoo has created a Python Developer Center as part of their Yahoo Developer Network site.

It is nice to see that Yahoo's site to help programmers use their site better. The more creative Python programmers out there are probably already tooling some new things to make it easier to access Yahoo.
