Shabda Raaj has created a site called 7Days7Apps where he is attempting to create seven Django applications in seven days. At this point he’s on day three. It’s an interesting idea and sure to generate some marketing for his site (already #53 on programming.reddit.com), but it is a bit of an exaggeration to call these applications. So far he has created a ToDo List, a DPaste “clone”, and a time tracking application.
It is really good to see people that are passionate about Django and want to be able to demonstrate that passion. Although, as expressed in some of the reddit comments, I can’t help but wonder if it would have been more impressive to create one well thought out app with a nice design in seven days.
