KPL, or Kids' Programming Language, was pointed out on the Daily Click today. I find it interesting that someone's trying to get children into programming again - the last time I'd seen evidence of this was in the late eighties when Usbourne released a series of children's books on BASIC (which I still have in the basement). Indeed, it looks like a decently powerful language, although I'm not sure about its claimed ease of use.

The site itself is rather offputting, though - I can't help being reminded of Dead Ringers' impression of Matt Smith, as it's written by a forty year old man trying to sound like a twelve year old boy. Only joking. I think. Ace.



[livejournal.com profile] scellanis put up a meme that caught my attention a day ago - to comply with the instructions I've put every piece of music on my computer into my playlist, so there might be a few embarrassing minefields to tread on.

Do you trust my taste in music? Pick one number from 1 to 777 and I'll find the corresponding song in my playlist, and provide a link to the selected song.

If by some miracle you actually want the resulting mentioned song, I'd be happy to send it, or you could get it from my FTP server.
