Today on HotWired!One of the beautiful things about computers is that they allow you to express your creativity in ways that were previously unknown. With a little bit of knowledge, you can create your very own software, Web site, or animation clip. The joy of seeing your finished work on the screen is the feeling that makes it all worthwhile. We know people would like to use their computers to create content, but how are they going to do it? Where can they go to learn the basics? If you’re in the beginner boat, do yourself a favor and head on over to HotWired.

The site offers basic tutorials on the stuff you want to know about. If you’ve avoided technologies such as JavaScript because you were scared of the complexity, HotWired will break you in smoothly. Don’t worry about intense jargon discussions – everything is dissected so that you, the beginner, know what’s going on. Anyone interested in animation will hopefully gain some inspiration by viewing a few of the movies on the site. Those of you who have put off entering a computer related field will find HotWired to be a nice first step into a new direction.
