Very cool. There has been a lot of talk about teaching HTML and js to adults recently (learn to web-dev in x months, get a job), but this is even better! Teach kids! You have to wonder what will become of a whole generation of kids who are growing up with a js shell in their browser... (Anecdote, the other day a 10 year old showed me around minecraft -- not just the 3D world game: he also had a complete understanding of about 10-30 commands in the command window. I found tp=teleport to be quite cool. 10 year old! In a couple of years, you could give this kid some ssh keys and he will run your systems n.p. I spoke to his hacker mom RE hiring her son (eventually) and she said she will think about it.) |

One of the amazing stories so far is a 12 y/o building an iOS game app and outselling Angry Birds (in Apple App Store Ireland), had the pleasure of meeting his mother who was exceptionally proud.
One of our youngest girls here (9 y/o) mastered basic HTML and was mentoring older youth!
