Alright, so this blog post is based on the conversation this forum thread (social.msdn.microsoft.com/.../57d21a4b-960c-4f09-95bc-b424aaf84cfa). Don't believe me that you/anyone can teach themselves/yourself programming with Small Basic? Well, start by reading this list of 8-13 year olds who learned Small Basic (blogs.msdn.com/.../small-basic-elementary-student-testimonials.aspx)... many were self-taught.

The real power is the link behind the two words - which you knew, but perhaps you didn't know how helpful it was. I had used the curriculum as a reference for further learning in a intro to programming summer course that I informally teach to local highschoolers. I was disappointed to find that the link I previous had was dead, and was even more disappointed to see that even the Getting Started Guide (msdn.microsoft.com/.../hh304480.aspx) online link ended up just redirecting to smallbasic.com. I appreciate you pointing out the new home for the curriculum.
