Network programming ?

[thushianthan15 at gmail.com]

Hi everyone,

I am planning to develop a chatting software in Python, for my college
project. I am using Windows Vista. Is it possible to do sockets
programming in Python ? Any books or websites ?  Also, i want to
develop a gui for that program. What are the gui tool kits available
for windows? I already knew about PyGtk and PyQT, but will they work
properly in Windows platform? Any suggestions?

Thank you. Excuse my English.
