Callcast - Discussion with Nathan Borror

One of the reusable apps I see consistently mentioned in the djangosphere is basic-apps. The man behind the multi-app solution (blog, people, movies, books, profiles, music, places remarks, media, and inlines) is Nathan Borror, Interactive Art Director for LJWorld in Lawrence, Kansas — which just so happens to be the home where django was born. He's also responsible for the EveryBlock iconography, as well as a writing an excellent blog playgroundblues.com. We talked basic-apps, tumblog, blogging well, personal blogs, navigation, usability, minimalism, iconography, django and design, iphone, djangocon, django-nyc, python-nyc, django sprints, open sourcing your code, his flash mp3 player, and music. It's about 30 minutes long, enjoy!

The beauty of basic-apps is that they're great starter apps for django noobs. But beyond that, they're amazingly useful as well. Nathan doesn't call himself a programmer, but he is. He also is an amazingly gifted designer to boot (check out his labs) which makes for a wicked combo. It was a pleasure talking to Nathan. During the call we discussed a variety of different things, as a listed above. Make sure to checkout django-basic-apps and its supporting google group

Kevin, this was a lot of fun. So much more can be said about Django template best practices, a topic I wish I was more prepared for -- maybe next time :)
