Everyone has this huge massively parallelized supercomputer on their desktop in the form of a graphics card GPU.

  • What is the "hello world" equivalent of the GPU community?
  • What do I do, where do I go, to get started programming the GPU for the major GPU vendors?

Check out CUDA by NVidia, IMO it's the easiest platform to do GPU programming. There are tons of cool materials to read. http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_home.html

Hello world would be to do any kind of calculation using GPU.

Hope that helps.
