>>> d = dict(one=1, two="three", question="life, universe, and everything")
 >>> import simplejson
 >>> s = simplejson.dumps(d)
 >>> s
'{"question": "life, universe, and everything", "two": "three", "one": 1}'
 >>> simplejson.loads(s) == d
True

If you *really* want to "share" objects between programs, there are way 
to do so (pyro comes to mind). But this gets more complicated...
