I know that github and sourceforge has lots of open source projects that needs contribution. However, sometimes I feel they have this barrier to entry for new programmers. Would people be interested in somethings that introduce new programmers to each other to work on something?

#2I think that'd be pretty cool, as a fairly new programmer!

What kind of project do you want to work on with other people? I am thinking tiny but usable mobile app, desktop apps are great starters. People could even work on the same thing just for practice.

I'd be game for pretty much anything, honestly. Mobile or desktop, whatever. As a relative beginner, it's kind of daunting to approach a non-toy programming application, so I just find myself doing classical crypto applications (for example). Doing something actual, even if small and goofy, would be really cool.
