Came across this interesting site today: http://www.codecademy.com/ It aims to teach you how to code via some pretty cool interactive lessons! I started one on Javascript, and was pretty impressed.

I would use it more if it taught objective-c ;) Otherwise learning javascript would be fun too.. but need to prioritize, not enough hours in the day. Thanks for the share Mark!

There aren't any negative ramifications for not finishing one step--it just shows as not done. Comments I like it too. If you ever get stuck on a lesson, just skip it and move on.

Especially for beginners like me, it not only has a good pace and solid lessons, but I like how it has the points, streaks and badges system that sort of makes you feel rewarded. Awesome find!

I've steadily been doing the Javascript lessons...they're well written, engaging, and I feel like I'm actually learning something. Good stuff! Mark Comments I totally agree!
