Recently I've become more and more interested in Java programming. I have some experience in C++ and Visual Basic, but never really got around to learning Java. Is it worth learning? What kind of programs can I actually make?
Feel free to voice your opinions below.
I have been studying the traits and dispositions of the "lower animals" (so called) and contrasting them with the traits and dispositions of man. I find the result humiliating to me.

With java you can make games, from runescap etc. It is also a very complex language (meaning you can do a lot in it.) If you know c++ java is just basically the same.

Great, thanks for the advice guys. I'll probably learn it, maybe get a few books from the library.

Java applications are slower then normal applications though, based on the fact it has to "emulate" a Java runtime environment.
