I agree with what Alan wrote. Your project sounds like real challenge even for experienced developers. Even for a team of experienced developers. You need both deep knowlegde of certain areas and broad knowledge of programming, databases and networking/communication. Of course you don't get the knowlegde if you don't start to develope a system. But if you start with too much and too complex things the risk is that you get stuck. There's a saying: "You've got so much in your mouth that you can't chew anymore." (And you realise it only when it has happened ;-)) To avoid that risk of suddenly being buried in complexitiy and not knowing what to do and where to move next, I'd recommend to follow a step by step learning path: With your project in mind, plan 3-5 smaller projects. Each project has one of the key technologies for your final project as focus. For example: 1) Create a Django site where users can register and unregister. 2 or 3 simple web forms. Nothing more. You'll learn all the database stuff and Django basics. 2) Build a system that handles SMS communication. 3) Build some a nice html+JS websites. ... ... Then you can tackle the last and most challenging task, which is to design your overall system: Infrastructure, layers and your business-logic modules/classes. Go in small steps! That will also keep your motivation up as you get feedback after each step. HTH, Jan Please help.

I said that your technology choice was OK for the project. What else do you want to know. You say you've done a lot of reading - but you don't say what? The python tutorial? Any other tutorials? The Python cookbook? You mention Django - have you read the introductory tutorial material there? You haven't really asked us anything much yet.

Re: [Tutor] JOB AD PROJECT
(Apologies for TP-ing) I'd second Alan's comments about not taking this as a first piece of work. Otherwise, Django seems a good choice - reasonably simple to get started, and well documented. This is the Python tutor list, so sort of assumes you are doing it in Python. This list tends to work best with "how do I do X?", or even better "I've written X, but it doesn't work/ doesn't work well enough" If you are going to use Django, then you should join their mailing list.

[Tutor] JOB AD PROJECT
Hi, I have done some extensive reading on python. i want to design a classifieds site for jobs. The service is meant to send people who register an sms with available jobs that fit their criteria/cv. But the main idea is that people come and register for quick jobs(like www.freelancer.com) and put up their criteria,age,location,qualificationsand when a company or employer posts a job,the people that fall into the category that was specified get sms and email alerts as to the availability of the job. I am taking this as my first project and would appreciate any help. I am looking in the direction of python, maybe django. Kindly help. Thanks.
