 | it is rather too bad seeing a bunch of lispers clowning about it. one could have indeed started such a daily tip that would be useful and instigate learning.

There is nothing wrong with humor, and humor does not entail disrespect.

Projects like these succeed if their founders stick with them until they themselves have put in enough content to generate interest and pick up new contributors and grow even more until they become self-sustaining.
Also, steady marketing is necessary to achieve mindshare.
What you might do is continue the effort, frequently appearing on a python group to ask questions, always advertising your site and its noble purpose.
You might also ask around to see if folks like the design of those pages. I myself could not quite make out at what I was looking.
