Hellgate: London Diary
At IGN you can find a new Hellgate: London development diary. Tyler Thompson of Flagship Studios talks about his work as a programmer on the game.

This is really interesting to me 1) As a slavering fan of all things Hellgate:London, and 2) as someone who's intensely interested in programming but hasn't the faintest clue how it all works behind the scenes.
Doing the kind of work that Thompson talks about sounds really cool, building tools for the artists and putting in placeholder graphics, then seeing what they all do with it. It's too bad for me that the idea of learning how to program sounds insurmountably intimidating to me.
