Hello in 60 Seconds
Ever see that crappy movie Gone in 60 Seconds, where Nicholas Cage can supposedly steal a car in sixty seconds, but you never actually see him do it? It's all Hollywood camera tricks!
Well, I don't steal cars and couldn't get Angelina Jolie to co-star, but my movie actually shows you how you can write "Hello, World!" in Java in less than sixty seconds, from start to finish, using IntelliJ IDEA. No sneaky camera tricks, either! See it here.
By the way, if you'd like to learn all those handy keyboard shortcuts I use in the screencast, check out the default keymap from IDEA's documentation at JetBrains.

Is it me or is the video just a blank white screen?
Nice driving! :)
w00t, w00t, that rocked! Next Stop, EJB HelloWorld :-) You're not the screencast master!
Well done! You've got a fast machine: the startup time is pretty fast. What do you use to record your movies?
I used Camtasia Studio 2 from TechSmith. Pretty good product, but I found a few bugs.
My firefox also return blank to me... but IE is ok
Not bad. I loaded up Eclipse and did the same in 27 seconds. Why the amount of time matters I have no idea, but I am game for challenges.
anonymous, Rob was pretty talkative during the demo, and the real time spent in the creation of the Hello World example was much quicker than 1 minute.
Hi Rob,
I liked your hello world application. If you could keep this up and build on what you´ve got, I´d be prepared to invest time and effort in learning Java.
Please inform on your next travel dates to Spain so I can arrange a number of live demos.
