Hey Even Java4s.com is the superb….!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Really i love this.
Thanks for this list mkyong..
this is the one of best site for Java.
I think the list needs a overhaul.
CodeRanch/JavaRanch has been there even before 2004, please verify the date before putting it up. Searching on the CodeRanch forums will show you results as old as 2000, and I know members who have been on the ranch since 1998, for example:http://www.coderanch.com/forums/user/profile/74
And I dont think we would require top 20 sites, because lot of sites like RoseIndia, Java2S, JavaTips, among others dont do any thing good apart from just putting up the source code.
You have missed the all famous JavaPosse- http://javaposse.com/. Also few good ones are- JavaSpotLight: https://blogs.oracle.com/javaspotlight/, InfoQ (this one’s really good), Parleys ( this one has lot of good videos from across Devoxx, Javaone).
JavaLobby(Dzone) is much better than the ones its sitting with.
Hi,
Please correct the link of #12.
You just cant forget http://www.vaannila.com/. Clarity and Concept really very good site for Struts1, Strust2, Spring, Hibernate and Ant
Agreed
Yes Really it is very clear…
ya agreed. Thanks for the info boss
Please check your facts about statckoverflow.com I think it’s ASP.net
Hi,
http://www.planet-source-code.com is also a worth visiting site for Java new developers.
Anil Shah
Very good list.
Really good list. I think InfoQ and DZone could have also been added.

@@Bauke Scholtz says: I read the post, well said man. Roseindia is full of advertisements. Nothing special in it.
But we have accept there is some good collections of programs in Roseindia
In your blog, it would be better if you allow reader to download your example. Overall, it’s quite good :)
Thanks for your quick reply. I tried but not able to do the same.
Download button is not enable.
will try to fix the same asap.
Hi Java Lover,
Thanks a lot for sharing java goodies.
Among the sites listed,i used to follow Roseindia,java2s and coderanch sites regularly.
The best site related to java platform i met in my life is none other than “Roseindia”,which is a fantastic reference for a a beginner/experienced.
Recently “www.javabeat.net” also stolen my attention towards it..Refer this and if u feel this eligible,add it in the best sites list of java.
JAVA ——–> My Favorite……..
I think the Java Programming Forums are worth a look! – http://www.JavaProgrammingForums.com
A really strong community of Java programmers from all over the World.
http://balusc.blogspot.com/
I have missed putting the blog. This blog belongs to Bauke Scholtz and the quality of articles is awesome!
Nothing beats the quality of articles in here.
Anyway good compilation though!
Hi,
Please help me out.I have Struts2 Application which works fine when I run in localhost…Somehow I am failed to run using Virtual host name…It comes to stating login page after then it cannot execute my action classes….I am try to google for the solution but nothing works out…Please help me on this issue…..
If My application can work in localhost I assume it will works for virtual host also…Please advice me on what can be the possible cause…
Many Thanks and Regards,
Jerson
Nice compilation :) but in my rating javaranch in top and stackoverflow number 2.
Cheers
Javin
thanks.
All sites are good.
good work frd
I’d consider adding also http://www.mastertheboss.com which contains lots of easy-to-grasp tutorials. Mark
good work friend……………………….
What about http://www.javagaming.org ? That’s a very important Java site to learn about programming games in Java.
Indeed, a good site for Java gaming, thanks for adding this into the collection.
InfoQ???
http://infoq.com
Also add this one in the list : http://javaj2eeplanet.blogspot.com/
Export the above links as Bookemarks:
http://rapidshare.com/files/409316536/Top_20_Java_Site_-_Chrome-bkmrks.html
Thanks for doing extra for me, really appreciated your help.
Thanks so much for the list…there are definately a few here that I don’t visit often such as Java-Tips or Mkyong. Javablogs is great, and IBM developerworks does put out some quality series. I’m hoping that overtime http://www.translucent-development, and particular some of its new features such as the Development Links becomes a good one-stop place for someone looking to get up to speed in Java, and other things on the JVM.
David
Is that your site? Hope it will get bigger in future.
Google?
No, just best Java collections in my mind. Mind to sharing yours?
Very good list!Although I know most of the sites you mention I found some goodies!thanks for sharing!! :)
haha!
Almost all of thoses sites are horrible, except stack overflow wich is pretty cool!
Exactly!.
Really? i get most of the Java news from the above sites, and quality article from ibm and java lobby. For the Q & A, of course i will go stack overflow and big saloon, both are very nice forum.
Mind i know yours?
It’s a good collection, only Roseindia is utmost terrible, completely off the place in this list. See als http://balusc.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-is-it-with-roseindia.html
Hi Bauke,
Really appreciated your sharing experience with Roseindia.net, and let me know how bad they are :), will update the top Java list again.
Hi sir
i saw your post of top 20 java website
is superb in our top 10 gallery also top 10 job website are posted
Yes true, roseindia is really waste, rather java4s.com is 100% better for freshers to J2EE Developpers.
