There are a lot of options for getting your Raspberry Pi out of the box and turned on. Web sites, ebooks (a couple we bought and enjoyed are to the right), and even online videos. Today we came across a nice eBook put together by the folks over at Make Use Of (makeuseof.com). The eBook (PDF) is a free download. “Great Things, Small Package” covers what the ports are, creative cases and entry level programming. Everything is in plain english and to the point so a person can get their Raspberry Pi wired in and connected. Where you take it from there is up to you!
Lifehacker are publishing a series this week on DIY with your Raspberry Pi for beginners. The first article in the series went up yesterday ; it’s a very simple howto on getting started and set up (even down to a list of peripherals, and how to flash your SD card). We’ll be keeping an eye on this series: we’re looking forward to seeing what beginners’ projects they come up with!
