3 Free E-Books on Java for Beginners

Personally, I see the Uber guys as a replacement for a rental car when I’m in SF, especially if I have bags or equipment (which are annoying on MUNI) and need to be to places in a predictable amount of time.

Agree on Java, I’ve always said I love the language, but it’s always suffered from poor implementations.
