I started using Django in 2008 after an evaluation of several Python web frameworks (Pylons and TurboGears were a close second). I have been using Python since 2002 and think it's a great language. I have been developing software professionally for over 20 years at large, medium, and small companies (Nortel, Cognos, and SupportSoft). I'm looking forward to seeing what the next 20 years brings.
