DZone/Javalobby has over the past few months published several Refcardz which provide tips and tricks at your finger tips. I myself have been using many of these for the past several months. These Refcardz are written by industry experts, who in many cases are authors of best selling books. If you print these PDF versions, they look just great in your office as well.
