Call me crazy, call me stupid, but I have embarked on a journey to learn perl. I know it is not a very good intro language, but I think it will be a fun journey. I have already learned so much, but there is so much more to learn, so I want to learn it. I want to be able to make my own cgi-scripts and all that good stuff. The fact that my mom's friend needs help with a web page and came to me probably has nothing to do with it :) Actually, she wants me to help her make a script that gathers user info (name, email, etc...) and store it for later use. It is on a webpage that gets about 6,000 hits a month (thats DOWN a bunch from last year), and I would be dealing with about 100-150 people to get data from. I will let you know if it works out.
Anyway, my mom also wants me to make a web page for the slip slop slap people, you may have heard of. I have a teacher at my school who wants to help, and perhaps a few kids too who want to help. Hey, this one has a budget of $500, so I ain't complaining :)
