Who here loves teaching? I love teaching. I think there''s nothing more fun than finding someone brand new to programming, and helping them out of the cockpit of freenode and dancing about, swinging around trees and giggling gleefully while downing endless bottles of cider and.. wait.. I think there''s nothing more fun than finding noobs and teaching them how to make awesome hacks! I know some of you guys think like I do, and I want to know which ones of you that is? I''ve a project in mind, and it''s going to take some doing. I could do it myself, but it''d be way better with a bunch of total geniuses at the helm than just silly old me. So seeing as today is WhyDay and all, it seems like we should be thinking about the kids, and about teaching, and about drawing pictures of little silly people talking about silly things which somehow leads to education through nothing more than a thick coating of irrelevance. TL;DR; I want brains. Braaaaaains http://cl.ly/0i1Q3S0A1017470j2c2r ? Bluebie Freelance internet doofus

I would personally like to see the Camping book expanded on more, but I can''t wait to see some more projects for spreading Camping. -Waffles On Wed, Aug 31, 2011 at 10:02 AM, Dave Everitt <deveritt at innotts.co.uk>wrote:> Everyday is WhyDay.

I don''t think I know enough to contribute anything, but I''ll see if I could perhaps write up something from what I learn here, perhaps making it more user-friendly. -Waffles On Wed, Aug 31, 2011 at 6:11 PM, Jenna Fox <a at creativepony.com> wrote:> Would you like to write some content for it Waffles?
