I'd also point out that Google has created a very awesome Python course which is heavily dependent on video lectures by Nick Parlante. Included in the course are downloadable exercises and examples (all mentioned in the video lectures). After you review all of this quality (not to mention free) material... I think you'll fully understand what separates Google from its competitors. (By this, I simply mean that you will not see similar offerings from, say, Facebook, Apple, or MS.) <div>
