I have built websights all my life, but never understood the point of webframeworks. Screw that shit, just use whatever libraries and tools make sense, no need abstract already simple things.

Pro: its components work well together and make it a fertile ground for code/library sharing.
Con: its components aren't the bee's knees.

Django was a master. One of the best guitarists ever,and for only having two fingers on his fretboard hand. Simply amazing.
Django is great if you want to do *exactly* the things it's designed for, and nothing else. If you try to deviate even slightly from the framework, it will give you absolute hell. Our production version of Django had a series of patches you had to apply to the normal version just to get in some basic functionality that wasn't supported.
Try Pylons instead. I haven't used it; apparently there is more supporting code to write, but it's a lot more flexible.
