I am looking for some ideas for a portlet

Hi
thank you for reading my post.
I am looking for some ideas about developing a JSR-168 portlet.
Can you please give me your suggestion?

Thanks

First start by extending GenericPortlet. From there, the world is your oyster.

If you just want to know how to get started, I've got plenty of tutorials, er, portorials, on my website. Check out my signature links.

Is there anything specifically you're trying to do?

There's actually a different book coming out that focusses on JSR-168 portlet development that I wrote myself, and is of much higher quality. That's a good look at JSR-168. But that won't be out for a few weeks.

There are some free mock certification exams for portal that I just put up on my website. They are very good indicators of the types of questions you will see on IBM Portal tests 399 and test 829. If you can pass them all, then you're ready for the exam - if not, you've got some studying to do.

Good luck!
