"How long have you been using #Java?" I wrote my first Java Hello World in September 1999. That amounts to ... 25 years Thank you, @Sharat_Chander and @TCoolsIT! #devoxx

@GeoffreyDeSmet @Sharat_Chander @TCoolsIT My first presentation on Java was in late 1996 if I remember correctly.

@speakjava @GeoffreyDeSmet @Sharat_Chander @TCoolsIT Summer 1995. I wrote an SNMP stack in Java Beta2, on top of WINSOCK. By the end of 1996, I had written the first version of the web logic application server.
