Whether it did, or did not, I wasn't so far from the truth:

e.g. http://twitter.com/bigadmn

Yeah, you were. The OP asked for a *good* site for Java. Furthermore, they
asked for a good site for *Java*. You point us to neither.

Of course I didn't provide a good site for Java, didn't you see I
pointed to some Twitter links (and page with twitter links)?

Companies and CO. use Twitter as a news media to link to full articles
often related to "newest stuff that comes out?", to quote mimi.

Since the OP asked for a good site for Java, you completely failed to answer
their request.

Yes, duhy! And those links didn't have to do with Java, nor was the Twitter
site a good leaping off point for study of Java.

And if the link you provided had had links to Java stuff, which I didn't see
after perusing your links, then maybe your post would have answered mimi's
request.

mimi didn't look for good learning site, but site with news about java.

I think you again missuderstood the purpose of my post. Twitter was an
idea to pursue, I didn't do all the research for him. And with this idea
it's easy to find something like:

http://java.dzone.com/articles/top-10-java-twitterers

Look at the authors comment:

"Twitter has become a fantastic tool for me to keep up with what's going
around in the Java and Eclipse communities."

That's the general idea, don't know why you oppose this so harshly.

With regard to that and everything else previously said I purpose that
we end this futile discussion as it is leading us nowhere. Besides,
there is no law, Lew ,that says we have to agree on everything. :-)

No hard feelings.
