Continuations explained to C programmers

Sam Ruby writes an awesome essay on continuations, taking you progressively from the close-to-the-metal execution stack in C to dynamic scopes, closures and continuations.

A must read if continuations are still a mysterious thing for you.

And of course he mentions Cocoon that, let's remind it, brought continuations to web development more than 2 years ago.
