The "sites" model is there to make it easy to share and reuse content
among multiple sites; for example, at World Online we've got three
public-facing sites -- ljworld.com, lawrence.com and kusports.com --
which all need to share certain features and bits of content. Using
Django and the "sites" model, we can produce a particular content
object once and then direct it to appear on one, two or all three
sites as necessary.

As for the "site ID" setting, this tells Django which site that
project belongs to, so that it knows how to sort out what shows up
where.
