I just had to pipe up and give you kudos, Mr. Carrera.
Your tutorial is great. Most of the examples have a cool/interesting
factor to them. All in all, clearly written and a breath of fresh air
from the many "hello world, 50 times over" tuts ive come across when
browsing a programming language.
I think i hear the crowd chanting "book! book! book!"
