Same here Daniel. Hungarian notation became popular with VB programmers. It is there because you can glance at a variable and no that it is an integer or a string based on the first two or three letters.
But this isn't really good OO programming which
Java is, unlike VB. You create any class that you want, so what would you prepend to those? In VB, I used to use objXXX to show it is an object, but in Java everything is an object, so that would look kind of silly.
So, now I just use good and self documenting identifiers like:
name
numberOfArgs
firstName
