bring a newbie, i always wanted to learn something on dbus since a year ago... but i have not really played with it much. the java dbus thing i have read a little, but then later gave up. Today i got a little time, and i started playing with it again... only difference is - i tried it with python instead. It turned out to be a nice experience. With dbus now i can communicate with a running software that had itself registered at the dbus daemon, and i can even invoke a command provided - for instance, call a notification dialog to display something (have not done that, but i will try that soon :))

so while considering what to start as a learning experiment, i thought of trying something with Skype - yes i know it is not FOSS product but i would love to play a little with the dbus Skype API. from the official dbus python tutorial to Skype's official developer reference, i finally get to call a skype user via my python script. Not too bad for a newbie within 1 hour. I have only programmed python in my whole life like a few hours ;) so i assume this will allow me to learn more.

will post more when i figure out more stuffs... but at this time i will just go around the line to play with Skype API :)
