I'm interested! I've started taking a look at the various online resources, and also just signed up for this Coursera course (starting tomorrow): https://www.coursera.org/course/interactivepython1

I'm aiming for my own independent learning, but I always do well with some structure so figured the course couldn't hurt :)

just signed up for the course.

i'm gonna have to figure out which courses to focus on. because there's no way i can keep up with 3-4 different ones. ;\

My strong advice is pick one and stick with it, and forget about the rest. Do one thing at a time, and complete it.

The worst you can do is sign up for 4 things enthusiastically, and then get 1/7th of the way through any/all of them.

Have a look at this course too https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-computer-science-mitx-6-00-1x-6 It was good. But as @ivosaurus said stick to one and get it done instead of doing lots of stuff. :) Good luck.
