Which sites are the best for posting Python code that actually works? To show/share, and get input? I would like to post my code.
Check out ActiveState's Python Recipes site. It reminds me a bit of StackOverflow.
I think Github (Git) or Bitbucket/Kiln (Mercurial) would be the best places to host any code. That way you can keep it in version control + get comments, suggestions, and even features or additional code for free via the pull requests.
There is no best maybe, google code, git are all pretty good web site. Try one of them and find the one suit you.
Check out pythonfiddle.

A client wants to have information about public instagram/facebook profiles (photos/videos published, total likes/comments) from a period of time. How do I go about doing this?
I found out that some of that information is available in the website source code, but how do I use that information? Also is there any sites/services that does that already? The only ones I found only go as back as a few weeks, or only procress future posts.
I thought about automatizing the process with python, is it a good idea?
I'm new in programming, so any help is aprecciated.
As far as I know Instagram is trying to limit as much as possible bot activities, I'm not sure about Facebook though.
You can definitely try to webscrape (using python or other tools) the information you need but if things don't work, it may not be your fault.

My goal is to send emails entirely from python. I want to do it all from scratch, maybe go as far as building an email server in python if someone hasn't done it already. I want to do this because I'm basically tired of using Postfix or the common email providers with the standard SMTP/POP/IMAP libraries. Also, another reason I want to try to do this is because I want to try and understand better how the email protocols work.
I'm not entirely sure where to start. Maybe I should take a look at the Postfix source code and try and make a python SMTP server. I know it would be much easier to just stick with the standard way of doing it instead of building from scratch, but like I said, this is more of an educational study for me to learn how it all works, I will very likely never use it in production.
So, give me ideas guys. Where should I start? If you know of an article that may enlighten me, please post it. --Thanks
It's been done before, but you can always make one if you want.
smtpd was a Python Module of the Week.
This is some good reading that was provided in a similar SO question here.
I've used this before when I was working on a project.

I'm developing a python script and I need to find the fastest way for getting a JSON from remote server. Currently I'm using requests module, but still requesting JSON is the slowest part of the script. So, what is the fastest way for python HTTP GET request?
Thanks for any answer.
Write a C module that does everything. Or fire up a profiler to find out in which part of the code the time is spent exactly and then fix that.
Just as guideline: Python should be faster than the network, so the HTTP request code probably isn't your problem. My guess is that you do something wrong but since you don't provide us with any information (like the code you wrote), we can't help you.
Maybe you have a lot of json requests to do, which can be done simultaneously. Then you can use async requests and thus mitigate the time spent waiting for network stuffs.
You can test this project https://github.com/kennethreitz/grequests (from Kenneth Reitz, who wrote requests).

I want to have a flexible templating language that I can customize for a specific use case, and also make it simple enough for non-programmers to use. I looked at Cheetah; does anyone have any others and/or any thoughts on customization? Python would be great, but other language-implementations are also OK.
Jija2 is a templating library that I find easy to use
See: http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/
See a previous SO question: What is the fastest template system for Python?
I like wheezy.template since it looks very similar to my python code. Its syntax is compact, expressive and clean. I was able to start right after a quick look at example. It amazing how intuitive it is. In addition it is fast.

I have a few processes I need to run in deamon mode, I just discovered upstart so I am starting to use it.
Are there any python libraries or applications that I could use to monitor and control these processes from an html interface?
I'm asking as I would like to prevent myself from reinventing the wheel. :)
Any ideas?
I think psutil is what you are looking for.
Supervisor is pretty awesome. I haven't used the web interface though, it might suck.
you can also try circus.
