+1 to elegant code examples from Sven's blog post. Also something
related with web data scrapping and browsing seems valuable and close to
newbies. We have been using this approach on our local workshops in our
hackathon and have worked pretty well.

+1 about using somethign with ZnClient. Manipulating web pages
(getting data, or filling out forms) is something all students can
understand and get excited about (versus some of the other traditional
code snippets in books).
Sven:
Wow, nice link! Those are excellent snippets.

Maybe for teaching, the example should somehow be familiar,
recognisable.
On the other hand, that might be confusing and lead to too many
comparisons.
