100 Word Summary:

Java¹s first name was ³Oak². The brainstorming session for this computer language began in Aspen on January 15, 1991. A few of the people involved were James Gosling, Mike Sheridan, and Patrick Naughton. Not surprisingly, ³Oak² went through many revisions before being put on the market. However, with time and increased internet usage, ³Oak² caught on. ³Oak² officially became Java sometime around the Autumn of 1994. Java was officially announced at SunWorld Œ95.
