Simon Willison : World's ugliest Django app - World’s ugliest Django app. Brilliant hack from Paul Bissex: a self-contained Django application in 70 lines of code which shows off some internals trickery and makes use of a bunch of handy django.contrib packages.

Simon Willison : Django Evolution - Django Evolution. Really smart take on the problem of updating database tables to reflect changes to Django models. Code that automatically modifies your database tables can be pretty scary, but Evolution seems to hit the right balance.

Simon Willison : Logic in Templates - Logic in Templates. I don’t think it would hurt Django to have a bit more support for conditional logic in templates, but I wouldn’t go as far as supporting the ability to call Python functions directly.
deusx : about:cmlenz - Logic in Templates - "In my humble opinion, this kind of “dumbed-down” templating results in only one thing: more lines of code in the application modules, lines of code that are really only about presentation, and should be in the templates."

plasticbag : My lovely colleague Simon Willison has gone and finally relaunched his weblog in Django - I know weblog redesign posts are a bit 1999 but still, it's really clear and well organised with a range of innovative little UI and archiving touches. Worth a look.
Rod Begbie : Finally powered by Django - Simon Willison's shifted his blog onto a Django-based platform. I think I might have a crack at this myself -- The limitations of MovableType (not least the fact that I don't know Perl terribly well) keep biting me these days. Could be fun to roll-my-ow #
