Java Tutorial 8: Hello Networking!

Hello and welcome to Java! I'm going to be, in the coming weeks, uploading tutorial after tutorial on java! This specific video shows how to do (basic) networking in Java! This series will get you from no java experience at all to networking, creating multithreaded servers, getting user input, writing to and reading from files, 2D graphics, and more! Have any questions? Feel free to leave them in a comment below :).

When I first saw your tutorials, I thought; "This guy is awesome!"

While watching the sixth or seventh tutorial, I saw that you have Minecraft & Tekkit on your taskbar. Now there are not words to describe how awesome you are. :)

I'm a dyslexic who studied a whole year of network java at university. However I learnt more in this 30min tutorial than in my whole year studying. If you have any tips on a java load balancing system i'd be very grateful. Thanks with best regards.

Max, I've really gotten alot out of your tutorials so far.  You move at a good pace and explain things really well... except for this video.  This feels like it comes completely out of left field.  I don't know how much networking experience you expect people to know coming into this but I was totally lost.  I didn't understand anything the program was doing, what the inputstreams were, or whether these were multiple java programs running concurrently or a single program or what...  Do you explain this further later?

Thanks for posting those useful videos. I'm working on simple server/clients communication, I need to modify my server program to require client side certification. But, I'm unclear about modifications that I should add. Can you help with that?

thanks

You mentioned continuing on with the server and creating a text based MUD. Did you ever finish that? If so where can I find the tutorials on it?

Hi Max, when or where are the tutorials for the RPG game?

You are the ONLY person i've found online who is capable of teaching java from no experience in an understandable way and i've learned a lot from you. except about networking. I have no idea what I was supposed to be learning here. I'm just hoping you explain it in later episodes. I'm a bit disappointed to be honest
