| Ask HN: Anyone want to work through SICP together? | ||

I've starting reading SICP but haven't been too good at keeping at it. Does anyone want to join in to help each other work through the exercises and stay on track? | ||

Interested; please include me. Once the book arrives I'll have to confirm I can make the time.
In terms of how: I was part of a terrific, useful "HN reads SICP" group a while back (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=428248, couple of us made it through to the end). In that case the meeting place was simple (irc) and we generally linked to our answers on pastebin/github/personal site which supported whichever features we needed it to. An HN thread per "meeting" could work similarly as a hub.
It is probably useful for each person to chime in separately, e.g. "I agree that this is the right answer" or "I also have this confusion", despite this not being ordinary HN etiquette. That allows us to know how many people are participating and evaluating answers, which is difficult, especially given hidden comment points.
