I currently have detailed wireframes, a UI design mockup, and a complete overview description. So those should help.

I want to learn it for long-term rewards. It all sounds a little daunting though..

Any insight into where to begin. With so many different programming languages (php, java, ruby, c++ yada yada yada)... where does a newbie even start?

I'm essentially looking into any option at this point and you make perfect sense with your response. Thank you

Although I don't know how long it takes to learn programming... I'd be willing to bet it's not a quick learn. So, would it be wiser for me to find someone to assist in developing a prototype and while that is happening I study and learn some basics.

Or, is it better to delay an idea for months or more while I learn and then struggle through doing it on my own.

Personally I think it makes more sense to find help and learn at the same time. But I completely agree - I do need to learn this stuff, somehow.

I've been in online marketing for years. Currently working at a large ad agency as a Sr. Search Media planner. 9-5 is not the way I want to go for the next 25+ years.

I am serious, and have reached out to a few programmers I know to start discussing the idea. I just don't "speak" programmer so I'm not sure the best place to start.
