NovaJUG in Government Computer News

Via the NovaJUG discussion list I see that Joab Jackson covered the last meeting -

Are you an experienced Java programmer who appreciates the hearty support of Java platforms and yet is envious of how quickly new languages such as Ruby can be used to build Web applications?

Now you can have the best of both worlds with an emerging language called Groovy, according to a presentation given last week at the Northern Virginia Java Users Group.

Jackson writes far more succinctly than your humble servant and gets the news in fast. But I seriously doubt this article would have been written had I not been blogging these meetings for the past three years. Blogging is redefining what constitutes news.
