I'm very new to Selenium Web Browser Automation. I'm trying to write a test to verify a that the menu item for About actually goes to the About page in "http://www.seleniumhq.org/" Do you guys have an idea of how to achieve this by using Selenium Web Browser Automation Python?? Thanks you!

Locate the About link by link text, click it and check what the value of driver.title is:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.seleniumhq.org/")
driver.find_element_by_link_text("About").click()
assert driver.title == "About Selenium"
driver.close()

First, determine what(element,text,link,img etc) in the loaded about page you will use to validate that you are in correct(about) page. Then construct your code like this-
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
driver.set_page_load_timeout(10)
driver.get("http://www.seleniumhq.org")
driver.find_element_by_id("menu_about").click()
#Assertion 1
assert 'About' in driver.title
#Assertion 2
assert 'about' in driver.current_url
#console log
print('Title of the current page is: ' + driver.title)
print('Current URL is : ' + driver.current_url)
driver.close()
