I've been messing around with Project Darkstar, a framework for making online games in Java. If any of you have an interest in online game development, I'd highly recommend it - it automatically handles data saving, server crashes, multithreading, distributing the server over multiple machines, and people logging in.
After only a few hours of setup and tutorials, I now have my very own game server! It goes "boop". Well actually, it prints the word "boop" to a console screen once a second, which is much less annoying than actually going "boop".
