With all the talk about Rackspace going purely OpenStack today I have been riding a wave of excitement. More initiatives towards open source cloud computing!?! That’s pretty cool. Instead of my usual trend of riding my excitement curve (i.e. drink a ton of coffee and rapidly try to explain numerous articles I’ve read to everyone in my workplace) I will add one more thing.

In an attempt to make my enthusiasm beneficial to me I am going to learn Python. Not only that, I will document it all right here. It’s a new series that I am both excited and terrified for. Hopefully I can provide an in-depth review of what I am learning and how it is benefiting me.

I’m going to start with the Python Tutorial and move down a chain of tutorials along the way, giving my insights into which ones worked the best for me. Prepare yourselves! It may be a slippery slope leading to me crying in a corner, but on the upside I will be learning.
