Code Academy - A great site to learn the basics of web programming

Code Academy has one of the most comprehensive learning tools found anywhere on the web.  The reason it is so successful because it lets you experiment with live code.  You basically code in various languages offered such as HTML5, PHP, RUBY, JAVASCRIPT, CSS and others.   It also contains various tutorials if you want to learn how to use the various languages in different free web APIS.

  The only thing I liked is that it lets you access code samples and play around with them.  It also has a forum for which contains useful information.  This is one fo the few websites that is beginner friendly.  

  One bad thing is that sometimes the code is wrong but you can find more information on what is going on by visiting their forums.  Signing up is free!
