Code.org is aimed at making programming cool, and they?re going to do it with a documentary:
Code.org?s initial effort will be a short film, currently being edited, that will feature various luminaries from the technology industry talking about how exciting and accessible programming is. Two of the most famous programmers and entrepreneurs in history ? Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Facebook, and Bill Gates, the chairman and co-founder of Microsoft ? were among the people interviewed for the film, according to a person with knowledge of the project who wasn?t authorized to discuss details about it.
Lesley Chilcott, a producer of the documentaries ?Waiting for ?Superman?? and ?An Inconvenient Truth,? is making the film.
