I learned a lot from DDJ about technology itself and the way to apply it. I used to subscribe to the paper edition (probably sent via sail-mail, since it always took about 3 months to reach Paris...), before it became web-only.This is why I take special pride in having made the headline of Dr. Dobbs Update with Ateji PX in an article by Jon Erickson, DDJ's editor in chief, titled "Think Parallel, Think Java".
