2 May be less but its more than 1

Some time back I had link a post complaining that Chennai was a City of 2 tales here, but now after spending 3 months in San Antonio, I've decided that 2 is better than 1 any day :)

Top 5 websites any Java developer should hang out often

As I look back to 2005 it has been a year, which I've spent mostly programming in Java with some success. So let me make a small exception to my unsaid rule on no technical posts and post some thing technical just this once

As a java developer for over one and half years let me catalog my favorite web sites. Please feel free to add things that you feel deserve the top ratings

Java Ranch http://www.javaranch.com/ The most friendly community. The best place for beginners to start

Sun Java forums http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa If you post a query here there a very good chance that you'll get an answer

Javalobby http://www.javalobby.org/ The best place to get to know the latest trends or hype in the java world

JavaWorld http://www.javaworld.com/ Not updated often any more but it has a large archive of tips and articles that I find very useful

IBM developerworks Java technology http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/ A lot of tutorials and articles that really help you. The sections on JSP,Servlets and XML are especially good

I'm Back

After a long break I’m back to the blogsphere.

With a lot of interesting anecdotes from my recent trip to US I hope I'll keep the readers interested

Signing off for now
