Everyone,

I'm looking for references to the informal (trans. extracurricular) 
learning of programming. We all know (or may be) geeks of great prowess 
who never took a CS course. These people frequently relied on the 
Internet to receive help, get feedback, etc. Anyone know of any research 
pieces that detail (or at least reference) this phenomenon?

Thanks in advance. /me recedes into shadow...
