Heard about Greenfoot?   

Have you heard about Greenfoot?

If not - surf over to the Greenfoot web site and have a look. Greenfoot is a new development environment, built by the BlueJ team.

Greenfoot is great for building graphical interactive applications (such as games and simulations) very easily and quickly. In Java. And it's free.

Greenfoot is aimed at bringing programming into high schools and university entry courses, but it can really do much more than that. Have a look.
