Hi All,

Google unfortunately has a knack of presenting prospective Python users
who need to work with Excel files with information that is now really
rather out of date.

To try and help with this, I've setup a small website at:

http://www.python-excel.org

...to try and list the latest recommended ways of working with Excel
files in Python.

If you work with excel files in Python, then please take a look and let
me know what you think.

cheers,

Chris

PS: If anyone reading this has a python-related blog, it might help
Google if you could post a short entry about this new site.

Looks great to me!

One thing - Did you intend for the Simplistix logo (bottom of page) to
link to logo.gif?

Also (OT): Thanks for these! Hadn't wandered over that way until now.

Indeed, there's quite a bit of fun in there that's accumulated over the
years ;-)

Hi Chris:

Better :)
Would be more functionally balanced if Lingfo 'logo' was also linked
(tho I see it's just text).

Also FYI with IE 7.0 (on XPPro) part of the "Google Groups" iframe box
doesn't display for me - the "View Group" is cut off.
Am not sure why...? (My FireFox displays it correctly.)

Indeed, beat John until he comes up with a snazzy logo graphic ;-)

IE 7 is probably broken ;-) That or the Google Sites thing I used to
knock the site together. Unfortunately, as a result, I don't have any
control over than so there's nothing I can do to fix it :-(

Site's good Chris -- one of the things I'm doing apart ifrom tidying
up code for my python excel wrapper is also trying to get a site up
and running for use of it. So I'd be happy to share some content in

page has a bit more flesh, as it were.

I'm certainly not an artist/designer, but I was quite happy with these
logos I was going to use:

http://pydev.datasyzygy.com/python-excel-logo-128.png

Feel free to use those as well, if you like.

Back to the grind stone,

Cheers,

Jon.

There's also this logo, I did, but the resolution seems fairly
'funky', so I'll have to fix it, later, but it gives an idea anyway.

Thanks, I have more extensive plans for it, but thought I might as well
use the domain since I now have it!

Google still doesn't like it though:

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=python+excel

What do we need to do to get it to show up there?
Get lots of people to link to it I guess...

Well, you all know what to do ;-)

I have a whole tutorial I need to turn into online docs, if only there
were more hours in the day...

Thanks, but they're a bit "square", the Google Sites templates work best
with logos that are more rectangular with width significantly greater
than height...

cheers,

Chris
