  Here's one:

  I've found that depending on what you're trying to accomplish writing 
an explicitly threaded implementation may not be the best way to go.

  Having come from a C and Java background, threading was pretty much 
the only way I knew how to do multiple execution paths, but I found that 
for things like writing network servers in Python I was better off using 
asynchronous I/O. Look into the asyncore module and the Twisted 
framework (http://www.twistedmatrix.com/) if that's what you need.
