permalink is a way to change the behaviour of the get_absolute_url so
that you don't have to return the url, but the data that django need
to guess which url is the good one for this object...

you don't have to change urls.py, all you have to do is to use
permalink in your views

You may consider creating a django template tag to create the
navigation bar, because even if is not too complex, it's a bit too
much of "logic" for the template.
please use search engines [1]
suscribe to django weblog & django community planet,
digg the django trac sometimes they are tips how to get working things
whatever the google search bring me there most of the time.
