Java...for those who know PHP
Java, not to be confused with JavaScript (DEVIL!), is the next language I want to learn...but I'm having a hell of a time even getting started. I've found a few basic tutorials, but they bore the hell out of me. They bore me because they go to the super basic principles of programming, which is stuff I moved beyond over a year ago with PHP. Java and PHP may be vastly different, but so many concepts are the same that I need to find a tutorial that's meant for someone who already knows what classes are, what it means to have a static member method, why it is a good idea to extend classes and implement interfaces for uniformity, how an array is different from a string, etc.
Blahzors to the extreme. Java would be fun to use because I can make real applications with it. PHP is purely a web based language that can only be crudely hacked into running real time, which limits what I can do with it. I'd like to make applications, and eventually, games. I could do a Kings of Chaos style game right now with what I know, but I wanna make something better.
