Learning Django - Good starter project
I am presently embarking to learn Python and Django together and I have gained a fair bit of theoretical knowledge to help me out.

However, I'm after a good project that I can dig into which will offer me experience in Python, Django, MySQL, HTML5, CSS3, and various initiatives such as OpenID and maybe even payment processng such as PayPal.

I'm at a loss as to where to begin. I really want to code something functional, not just "hello world" or "list of book/author/publisher" examples.

Did anybody have a similar situation when learning to code? I would love to hear ideas and past experiences. I suppose this would apply to any language, not just Python/Django. Thanks!
