Thanks! CoderDojo is doing crazy well in the UK (specifically Ireland, the motherland) and we're trying to spread the love here in the US.
One of the amazing stories so far is a 12 y/o building an iOS game app and outselling Angry Birds (in Apple App Store Ireland), had the pleasure of meeting his mother who was exceptionally proud.
One of our youngest girls here (9 y/o) mastered basic HTML and was mentoring older youth!

Trying to hack a non-profit site? An non-affiliated NFP? Someone did not love this person as a child.
Please report? https://github.com/ahmedalex
P.S. If you're not a jerk and would love to help with the new CoderDojo.com site, let me know rebecca (at) coderdojo.com

Nice!
Are the background images huge? They took a long time to load :(

Hm, I would have thought that PHP would have been larger/visible on the graph.
