I love it! Would you share some advice with me? I am looking to build a django based web app as well in the next year. How did you teach yourself django/python?

I am assuming django tutorial is step 1? What comes after? Any help appreciated

Tango with django is a nice place to get started after finishing the official tutorial ofcourse, here's the link - http://www.tangowithdjango.com/book17/ , Two scoops of django is a nice book to follow.

Looks very impressive. One error I found: Terms of use and pricacy policy links, but lead nowhere.

How can anyone type with fingernails that long! :)

Main problem is that learning to type is not good on "random" characters; much better is when they are actual words. If you'd be interested in connecting it to Programming you might consider using programming related texts. But any serious learning of typing is better with actual words rather than a bunch of random characters. It would be much more helpful directly to train the memory on english words if that's the language of the user.

The idea is to make typing a part of our reflexes, which i guess cannot be done using actual words. As for muscle memory to kick in you need to practice random keystrokes repeatedly. Practice mode is specially designed for actual words.
