Programs that use python

The most comprehensive list of Python wins is at the Python web site, under python success stories 
Google, Yahoo, Washington Post web site, Plone content management system, Zope portal framework/application, etc.
Google and Yahoo originally rolled out much of their functionality written in Python. Where performance was an issue (obviously, the search engine party) they reprogrammed it in C or C++.
However, much of the non-performance critical modules today remain written in Python. When you are on these sites checking online help or doing some social/portal thing, take a look in the URL of the page you are looking at and see if there is a ".py" in there somewhere.
Google's new Application Engine is 100% Python. It is not just old functionality but also new functionality that is being coded in Python.
Google has made their development practices/philosophy pretty transparent to the outside world. They are very knowledgeable people, generally - and their programmers are encouraged to use a language that is a good fit for the software they are creating.
Many software projects managed/organized/monitored by Trac. Trac is written in Python.
Someone blogged a list of popular Python applications in How Python wins the web.
As an aside, Python won readers choice award in 2008 for Favorite Scripting Language. The survey was put out by Linux Journal magazine.
