what a dream: Use python to upload (or look up) data on your Google spreadsheet. Truly amazing.

It's just so easy and beautiful. This is what software should be about: a zen like minimalism.

You can read say building temperatures or energy usage or process data from RS232 for example (1 include, 1 line to open, 1 line to read), and then upload it to a google spreadsheet using about another 20 lines (to log in, open the spreadsheet etc).

So you can then view your process data anywhere on the internet by logging into your Google Apps.
So so easy.
