Hi Sebastian, I am new to Python and Web2py as well. I checked out this video on Vimeo today, and found it to be an excellent walk through by Massimo from start to finish on creating a basic polls application. Vimeo has some other good web2py demos as well, including an equally interesting one on creating a mini wiki.
