“Code Year” Promises to Teach You Computer Programming in 2012

Is it possible to learn the basics of computer programming in one year? That’s the hope of the more than 281,000 (and counting) people who have signed up to participate in Code Year, a New Year’s resolution challenge that promises to teach users enough code to build their own apps and websites by the end of 2012. Zach Sims and Ryan Bubinski bring an interactive, gaming-style approach to the subject. 

I just did the first couple lessons, even though I have a little coding experience in other languages (MATLAB and VBA).  Seems like a fun, easy way to get some familiarity with Java, especially if you have little to no programming experience!
