Definitely command line apps/command line usage.

 I could recommend google searches, but use the calls to the OS, and
you can accomplish a good bit of things.

Hi,

Although I agree with the fact the working in the interactive interpreter (may I recommend IPython for this) is definitely an efficient way of exploring the Python world, I also liked alot the Python Essential Reference (4th edition). Since you already understand how to program, the Python essential reference quickly guides you through Python language and the standard library.

Regards,

Marco
