 * **Hacking** Yes, I know what you're thinking: My throat is clear. Hacking is more than just a method by which some clear their throats. It's also a slang term for breaking codes, using a computer to do so. You don't have to be a hacker to enjoy hacking; you could be someone who just wants to learn more about what's out there, about internet security, or learn more about computers and programs. So here are some related links that I'm still learning from. Enjoy.
