Yeah, I've seen a few of those! I guess I really don't understand how these can exist for such an inefficient library and then sort of not existing for Java, one of the most used languages!

I think javascript is actually more used, at least for things that have visible interfaces. Though I did at least find this for java.

Edit: Also this, which looks pretty good.

Yeah, alright. I'm going to start work on a html5/javascript client, using paper.js. I'm not sure how to handle the BSON connection, but I'm sure they're a way somewhere. Worst comes to worst, I can use JQuery.

You'll need to implement JAgoraLib too! What language can you use for that? I'm afraid I'm woefully out of touch with all the new web technologies.

Yeah me too. I think javascript should do just fine, though. Once I figure out how it works...

Alright, I have a very basic project working! I figure I should probably add it as a project on the github, right?

Yeah, I remember a friend showing me that. I could well use that instead of paper. Of course, the first thing I need to do is put together a javascrip AgoraLib.

Heheheh, good luck with that! It appears that D3 is using SVG as an underlying format. I think I'll try to use Batik to get nice rendering in Java, since apparently it allows you to render and see SVG documents. Hopefully the performance is up to par.

Reminder: Javascript is good but Java is a piece of shit.

HTML5 is future.

I keep hearing people talk about wordpress, and got a recommendation to look into it. Does anyone here know how to use it for cutom sites?

I think that's more of a static page type thing. I don't think it allows you to easily have super dynamic content!
