Tel un oiseau migrateur, le Geek Java effectue 2 à 3 migrations par an afin de s’accoupler. La première a lieu au début de l’été, la seconde en général juste avant l’hiver.

Almost immediately, I started seeing Twitter replies, blog posts and various articles talking about how Google Wave is going to kill Flash/Silverlight/JavaFX.
