Given this choice I'd go with the web app because it - has greater impact (a publicly visible app) and - doesn't involve the dullness of desktop GUI There are a few basic things that I think they need to see: > > - how do I get started > - how is code modularized and packaged > - how can it be deployed and executed > - how does Java interop work > - how do I handle the regular problems I have previously used > for-loops to solve > > Quite a good plan.
