Announcement: j-community.org launched

After a long time thinking on how to build a stronger Java Community in Los Angeles I started the new LA Java Community website. It is a social networking site for Java (and all Java related technologies) developers in Los Angeles (but , of course, also from outsiders are welcomed). It should bridge the gap between the JUGs in LA and the broad and widely scattered Java developers community. All of the JUGs in LA, as far as I know, have less than 100 attendees per meeting which is only a little slice with respect to the thousands and thousands of Java developers. With the high gas prices this will not change in the near future.

Every Java developer registering at:

http://j-community.org

can have their own public and community private web site, own blog, add or change content on the community websites. The only rules are to show basic etiquette and no commercial exploitation. Other than that the sky is the limit, well, as much as my server can take for now.

Consider this an invitation to join and to become a member which is free with no strings attached.

Have fun and see you there soon - Andy
