So, I've just watched the first video, Javascript Basics - 1. I'm actually probably going to watch it again as I write this blog post, since it was pretty dense, and a review would be good. It turns out that I learned a lot, but am still confused on a number of issues, so this post is long. A lot of it is simply paraphrasing(or sometimes quoting) the video itself, but that's being helpful in my parsing what I actually do and don't understand. This particular post I don't see as having much use to anyone but me.
