Mine was the discovery of the pybluez module. I had been sweating the task of interfacing a bluetooth GPS unit to my python applicaton. I googled for 'python bluetooth GPS' and found 20 lines of python code that had the interface up and running before breakfast. This included the package install with 'yum install pybluez' in Fedora Core 5.
