Comments about JavaOne
Well, I was going to try and talk about every session that I've been to, and about many of the new and old frameworks that I've seen, but one of the downsides of having the sessions in multiple hotels is that you're basically running from one place to ... |

JavaOne Day One: Stuck at the Airport
It is the first day of JavaOne, and I'm sure it is exciting from all the tweets and posts I've seen from other people. Unfortunately for me, my excitement comes in the fact that I have to wait more than 2 hours for my Continental flight, which has been ... |

I'm going to JavaOne
I guess I should've probably said something before, but I'm actually going to be attending the JavaOne this year, thanks to Oracle. They were kind enough to give me a Blogger Conference Access pass which allows me to attend not only all the conferences at ... |

Resurrecting my blog
It's really been a long time since I've updated this site. I could make up excuses like too much work, too little time, or simply that I didn't think there was anything worth to say. Some of it may be true, but the important thing here is that what I ... |

I just saw the live webcast for JavaOne's General Session on the future of Java, and I must say I'm a little saddened by it. I never thought I'd ever hear the words "Visual Basic for Java" mentioned anywhere, even less so in such an important ... |
