Would it be good to put Useless Python on the Newbies page too?
Sorry, it doesn't really strike me as a strong newbie resource.
Since it has come up....
Would it be a strong newbie resource if improved in certain ways? Or is it just not a great idea?
Useless Python has received a few hundred "thanks for existing" email messages from newbies, despite what I consider to be grossly-inadequate management on my own part. This is the reason the site remains in place so far.
Since the site is an out-of-pocket expense stemming from my love of the language, I would appreciate constructive advice.
I think the idea is great, but the presentation is a bit offputting. I realize that that may be part of the gimmick of the site -- but still... E.g. What's with the 16 numbered lists? How am I supposed to navigate my way around there? Just click random links until something useful pops up? Etc. Maybe you can make the home page a bit more useful for first-time visitors. PS if I don't respond further, it's because I'm about to disappear for a week. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
