This week's book giveaway is in the General Computing forum. We're giving away four copies of Arduino in Action and have Martin Evans, Joshua Noble, and Jordan Hochenbaum on-line! See this thread for details.
i have been studying java for a few months and have found that i learn the most when i actually get my but in a chair and write some code. the exercises on this site have been great for that. i have an idea for an app that would be useful to me...like- an online video collection lending library i could share with my friends but, i seem to have a case of writer's block on how to begin. does anyone have some advice on techniques / resources to break a real world problem into code?
Good OO design books are hard to come by. The two I would recommend are: Designing Object-Oriented Software Designing Object-Oriented C++ Applications Using The Booch Method My copy of Designing OO Software is a paperback so I am assuming a paperback version is still available. Bob Martin is supposed to have a second edition of his book that uses UML. Don't be put off by the C++. It is a great book! John

Talk about serendipity... I was looking for an IBM paper on JVM architecture and somehow stumbled across this. Not sure if it is good or not but probably worth looking at. Note: I read an article by this person out on javaworld that I strongly disagreed with but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt in this case.

John, I've read a number of his articles in JavaWorld and found them thought-provoking at the least. Out of curiosity, which particular article(s) of his did you strong disagree with? J.Lacar
