Java?

Hey all, first time posting to the community. I've got a lot of Java questions, being that I'm trying to teach myself applets (a task in itself). Does anyone know of an lj java community? I know the linux community gets a lot of hits, and you guys seem to be able to help each other out really well. I figure that's just what I need for learning java. Any help or hit in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank is advance =)
