I'm just looking for a structured place to start learning Python.

I want to broaden my horizon, and I was curious if anyone know a good place to start similar to the Java tutorials.

I could google, but I trust others opinions much more! :)

It's a really good one, I used it too.

I've been reading: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/python/

I like the ideas behind the language, its very different from anything I've used before though.

The syntax might be different, but the concepts behind it (control structures, OOP, etc.) were pretty similar to other popular languages from what I remember seeing when I took a brief look at it.

Yeah, the concept of tuples and lists is slightly odd comparatively to java/pascal which is all I have really worked with.

(And some cpp, php, html..)

HTML is no programming language! :D

Its a markup, but still behaves like one at times. :p
