I made a bunch of things in Django as side projects, but unfortunately haven't managed to launch anything. One reason is that I don't have enough time due to my day job, and another is that I loose interest when these side projects become hard :-/. But anyway:

- A version of caniuse.com, but for modern C++

- A website for going out in my city, scraping the web for events and displaying it all in one place (e.g. 80s night here, techno there, ...)

- A real life bugtracker for my city. There is a pothole / ridiculous intersection / missing playground? Open an issue! I think this one especially has potential.

Django makes it easy for data-centric sites. Just whip up a few models and templates, and start adding data using the admin interface, or by scraping.
