We're working on changing Teen Programmers Unite for the better this summer. As part of this, we've created a new Wiki at a temporary address. Eventually we think it will replace our existing web site.
The plan is to create a new, non-age-specific group for people who program for fun, to promote camaraderie, education, and cooperation on projects. The "Young" in "Young Programmers Network" leaves things pretty wide open, so I think this leaves a pretty big overlap in the target audiences. =) Please, visit our Wiki, and feel free to contribute as you see fit, or just leave feedback here.
There is also some discussion on the TPU site about choosing the name for the new super-group and things like that. I know that at least _I_ don't feel any petty rivalry between TPU and YPN, and I hope that everyone interested in this subject can get involved in creating a good environment on the Internet for hobbyist programmers.

Question: What is a Wiki?

If you poked around ours for awhile, you would find the default front page for the software, which explains it. Or you could, god forbid, do a Google search.

Okay, I get it.

I tend to enjoy AskJeeves searches to Google searches .
Typing what you are looking for in a form of a question is much easier for me.
I tend to like to search webopedia for these kinds of things though. They seem to have a pretty good answer.
