The fuzz on Java IDEs
Towards the end of 2007, I had the hip privilege of chewing the fat with Andrew Binstock for JavaWorld’s Java Technology Insider regarding the Java IDE market, which, as anyone who hasn’t been living in cave (and listening to disco) for the last 10 years knows, has gone through some substantial changes since Java’s inception.
Andrew has some copasetic thoughts to share regarding Eclipse, NetBeans, and everyone’s favorite, for pay no less, IDE: IntelliJ; plus, Andrew muses about RAD, JBuilder, and Oracle’s JDeveloper. I am a recent convert to IntelliJ, and the conversation was rather influential in convincing me of giving IntelliJ a try.
Have a listen to “Andrew Binstock rounds up the Java IDEs” and see if you agree with him, man.

I expect IntelliJ’s support for Groovy might have influenced your decision too.
Delighted you’re trying it out.
I’m really sorry to have to post this on your excellent blog, but it has been annoying me for a while now and every time I see it it trips me up.
Why do you feel the need to stick the word “copasetic” in almost every blog post? Most of the time I think your posts would read better if you just removed the word, if you must stick in random adjectives there are plenty more to choose from.
Sorry to do this, I hate comments like this, but something had to be done.
