They point to stuff.

If you have any specific questions about pointers, please be more
specific, if you just want to learn more about them then get yourself a
good book or search for information on the net.

tell me briefly about pointers

Once upon a time, at an address far away, an object was created. The
object said to itself, "this is me". It then started pointing to
itself; "this->self()" it said.

stay tuned.

Wikipedia is usually a pretty good starting place for this kind of thing.

Well, I just feel it impossible to tell somebody about pointer in
brief. But it's really possible for us to make the story above
longer.
