#Drupal and #GWT - The Chocolate and Peanut Butter of code!
Combining Drupal and Google Web Toolkit reminds me of Peanut Butter Cups - two great tastes that taste great together!

One of Google Web Toolkit's greatest strengths, and also one of it's greatest weaknesses, are the Web Developer plugins for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Explorer. During development, these plugins allow you to preview your changes without needing to stop and compile. When it works, it is simply wonderful.

This looks like a genuine #googlefail :(

About 3 years ago, I moved from teaching to programming for a living. During that time, I have worked in 4GL languages like Genero from 4js, and more traditional languages like PHP, HTML, CSS, sqlite, mySQL, FileMaker, and now... Java.
Java was an incredible change for me. It was my first real Object-Oriented language (yes, I know that it is possible to write PHP in an OO style, but that is not quite the same thing).
