I liked Beautiful Soup a lot too when I used it couple of months back. Also, Mechanize is a super cool library for filling and submitting the forms of any page. One can write a meta search engine by just using these two libraries in Python.
<br><br>Also, PyAmazon(by <font size="-1">Mark Pilgrim, author of Dive into Python) is a good Python module for accessing the Amazon services. It has a neat interface covering almost all the free services provided by Amazon.
<br><br>Djaptcha seems to be a cool Django capthca(I am yet to use it), which can be used with the Django projects with the forms to avoid spamming bots.<br><br>Thanks and regards,<br>Bharath Keshav<br></font><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">
