Getting Started?

[Jozen-Bo]

This site looks like its almost too full of heavy stuff to learn! Computers aren't easy and light...specially programming! I imagine it will take me a long time to get all the stuff this place has to offer.

Am I right that there is only 1 moderator here? That sounds interesting... hey Moderator, I like your name! It makes my imagine I am being Moderated by a computer itself and not a person. Which are you?

Anyways, where is the best place to start...if I want to learn about computers and know as much as you do, assuming that you (the Moderator) knows a massive deal more then me! Any advice?

Thanks,
Jozen

I suppose you can imagine me as a computer if you like... thats fine with me, or am I a computer?

A good place to start to learn about computers depends on your interests. Are you interested in security, programming, desktop support, networking, server administration, etc.

I am so glad to hear from you! I do imagine you as a computer program...its probably the name. It make talking with you fun!

At the moment I would say my interests are:
#1...programming (I want to prepare new software for my Mind Portal, a code making program)
#2...security (always important!)
#3...networking (I need to find the right people to get my business off the ground)
#4...server administration (this one comes last, because I don't plan on administrating until later this year or next)

So at the moment I suppose programming and maybe networking take the lead! Any suggestions?

Thanks 127.0.0.1!!!:wink:

All the Best,

I'm new too. It looks like there's lots to learn here. I'm glad I found this place. I'm fairly interested in security and networking, yet programming too. Everything seems to be tied together in computers. Where's the best place and what's the best way to start?

I've seen an old Java for dummies book, I'm fairly good in (X)HTML and CSS, and I know plenty about using computers. What I want to know is how to expand, tweak, explore, create, that sort of thing.
