Enough people responded that I might do a couple projects. Or, the same project, but with two different teams. You're a very non-MS guy. You're also a complete nut. From what I've read here, you also seem like you're a lot of fun. Those things make me want to nab you for one of the teams. It'd be fun to get out of MS-land. I haven't done paid Java work since 2003. I dug it at the time, but mainly because I was working on a traditional ASP site, and I *hate* ASP. ASPX rocks, but ASP - with all that scripting garbage - is unappealing to me to the maximum. I'd like to see the different solutions to the same project done with different tools, languages, and frameworks. For all I know, there's some extremely cool stuff going on in the Java world that I've been missing out on. I've done Java work for OS X (the best Java client platform in the universe before Apple stopped improving the dev experience), the iSeries (AS400 - also a great Java implementation with an awesome VM as well as the fancy compiler they've got over there), WebSphere on iSeries and Windows, Linux (got good by Java 1.4), and with some of the limited Java and Java-like tools available for Windows CE/Windows Mobile. Did client work, web work, back-end work... Aesthetically, .Net and C# appeal to me much more, as Java has a lot of baggage (the Java way is to write your own framework before the app - the MS way is to take the kitchen sink and run with it). The challenge for me would be to find beauty in Java. Before C# and .Net, it was, by far, my favorite little dev world. I'd love to find it beautiful again, but I'd need help. A guide, you know?

I’m going to post about the Facebook project either tomorrow or the next day. Enough people responded that I might do a couple projects. Or, the same project, but with two different teams.

You’re a very non-MS guy. You’re also a complete nut. From what I’ve read here, you also seem like you’re a lot of fun. Those things make me want to nab you for one of the teams. It’d be fun to get out of MS-land. I haven’t done paid Java work since 2003. I dug it at the time, but mainly because I was working on a traditional ASP site, and I *hate* ASP. ASPX rocks, but ASP – with all that scripting garbage – is unappealing to me to the maximum.
