100 High-Quality Java Developers’ Blogs

100 High-Quality Java Developers’ Blogs

Latest Update: 2013/12/02

The main goal of this post is to collect 100 high quality blogs from Java developers from all over the world. Some of these blogs may not be written by pure Java developers, but at least Java developers should find it useful/interesting in some way. Reading those blogs should be fun and can bring some fresh ideas sometimes.

Google ranks large websites higher. That is not so fair for small high-quality blogs. There are a lot of sites that have very large traffic, but they may not have high quality. My definition of high quality is as follows:

1.    Articles are readable and have originality.

2.    Its author shows real interest in technology.

3.    It contains creative thinking from personal understanding.

4.    It should update regularly.

Therefore, a lot of blogs that Google ranks high will not appear in this list. Please leave your comment if you know some blogs that should be in this list. As this list is quickly growing, please only provide good sites.
