Thanks for this nice explanation.
Tested, some comments below:

In reference to

[...]Done? Great. Now, place your weblog-add.py file in your cgi-bin/ 
directory. <ins>Make sur the file is executable by "chmod a+x 
weblog-add.py".</ins>Make sure you edit your domain name and the 
path[...]

<ins>On Macos X default in httpd.conf is to not allow .htaccess files.
See:
http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2002/01/29/apache_macosx_four.html?page=2

We have to re-enable them in the cgi-bin directory by changing a line 
in the /private/etc/httpd/httpd.conf file.

Search for the line:
<pre>
     <Directory "/Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables">
</pre>
Just below you will find the line:

<pre>
         AllowOverride None
</pre>

Change "None" to "AuthConfig"

Then stop and start Apache by using System 
preference->Sharing->Personal Web Sharing
</ins>
