I would suggest not trying to think of learning this cool thing and all. That's wrong attitude imo. Java's pretty cool too, even though personally I'm Anti-Java. Continue with SICP, learn Functional Programming. Practice Cormen exercises with python or any language of your choice.

I read about your blog.You're something that I would want to be like.Get in and create stuff just like that.I read about the comments surrounding your TC post.Don't bother about others mate.It's not about who innovates,it's who listens first and you did a great job with your apps.BTW I don't mean to say u didn't do innovation, just the whole steal/theif concept is bullcrap.I haven't used your product as I'm not on Facebook, so why not give it a thought about making it for people who cannot login through Facebook.
