[Java]
At work, I mostly used Java for web site backends running on JBoss or GlassFish. At home, I found Java useful for coding JavaApplets for my masters University work.I consider Java a quick-and-dirty programming language where on one hand you can create UI and code fairy quickly, but on the other hand you have no control over garbage collection or over what is a pointer and what not, which I believe are important features of any language. Although I prefer languages like Objective-C or C++, I tend to choose Java for my simulation work because applets can run on the web and the UI creation is much faster than with the C-family languages.
