I read a blog post about hiring for startups (or something like that). It was written very well. So I checked out the author's bio. Turns out he was one of the authors of an old book called The Black Art of Java Game Programming. When I say old, I mean it was published in the 1990's for Java 1.0.Normally books like these get obsolete immediately. And this book seems to have code that became obsolete with Java 1.1. However a number of comments on Amazon indicate the book still has a lot of merits. Well it warrants a read by me even though the book might be 25 years old. I placed an order with Amazon today.
I will let you know what I learn. Things are looking good for my Java development. I took a college class last year. This year I plan to take a week off from work and complete the remaining chapter in my college class textbook. I had though I might learn some more HTML programming (including JavaScript) later this year. However I might change direction and get deeper into Java. If so you will be hearing about it with some more frequent posts on this blog. Stay tuned.
