Although you may not be aware, your ability to play games, work problems, and even view things in 3D all online from your computer are all in thanks to Java. So just what is Java?
Java is a programming language and computing platform. Because of it’s versatility, and portability it has become one of the most popular programming languages today.

Java is a software that allows you to write a powerful, reliable, portable, and secure server that’s able to run on any platform from a home computer, to a hand held device, or even your own cell phone making Java ideal for internet use. And since Java can run on almost any computer system (so long as it has a Java interpreter named a Java Virtual Machine) it also makes it extremely versatile.
But before you go and get the latest and greatest update it’s important to check out what the update is all about. If it’s a fix for previous bugs in the system, then go right ahead and download. But if the newest update has all new features, it could mean all new errors that still need to be ironed out.
