Something Meaningful
I need to start focusing on something that is meaningful to me. I need to start concentrating on learning something new. So I decided that it's time that I should seriously seek to get certified on Java.
Just learning a new programming language, especially in Java's case, is not enough. Java is an object-oriented programming language. Design considerations are as important if not more important than knowing the language proper or any of the APIs that goes with it.
There are lots of resources out there. Namely, there is a simplified development environment named Bluej that is specially geared at teaching object oriented programming using Java. It looks like it's something that I could live with it. Consequently, I decided the buy the book Objects First with Java A Practical Introduction using BlueJ by David J. Barnes & Michael Kölling that goes with it and formally start my process of learning the object oriented programming using Java.
I will buy the book today and I think I might use my weblog to track my progress.
