Every programmer knows what Hello World means because it is the first time they were able to get a particular programming language up and running successfully. Hello World somehow became the universal way to announce to the world that you had cracked the shell of ignorance previously surrounding a particular language, and were able to hack the few lines of code it takes to produce "Hello World" and output it to your screen in some form. Today's time waster isn't a rockin space-race game or anything, but it is somewhat interesting, mostly if you engage in a little programming (or a lot).
The Hello World Collection is a site that has the code or graphic that it takes to write "Hello World" in many different programming languages. It is interesting to go find any of the languages you are familiar with.
