Java 8 Resources to help you learn (thanks to Mattias Karlsson)
Guess you know about all the resources and video cast Oracle provided
at the Java 8 Launch site:
http://www.oracle.com/events/us/en/java8/index.html
On top of that we have released all Java 8 talks from Jfokus 2014
including the Keynote with Georges Saab and Mark Reinhold.
Except the talks from a number of Oracle speakers you can find these
and many more:
-Java 8 Language Capabilities - What's in it for you?, Venkat Subramaniam
-Lambda Expressions: Myths and Mistakes, Richard Warburton
-Navigating the Stream API, Maurice Naftalin
They are now freely available here:
http://www.parleys.com/search/jfokus
OR with your iPad or Android device...
The Jfokus 2014 Play App enables you to watch talks from Jfokus in the
hammock or while commuting to work. The application has support for
off-line mode so now you can download the entire presentation.
Application "Jfokus 2014 Play" is available for iPad and Android.
Links to each app can be found here:
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.parleys.android.j...
iPad: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/jfokus-2014-play/id824139300

To the future and beyond,

My pleasure, Richard. Adam's presentation was great and his book is free to read online at LeanPub. https://leanpub.com/u/adamldavis Have you tried lambdas and the new date/time stuff yet? The iterators look good, too but it is going to be weird not using the old format.
