Any coders/programmers out there?

I took a Java class in college and I liked it well enough. I recently stumbled onto Codecademy (cool site, by the way) and have worked through the Java section. Problem is... I need to practice more but I am not very good at sitting down and creating small exercises. Does anyone know of a website that might offer small, practice projects for coding languages like this, with an in-browser compiler?

Thanks in advance!

I've done most of codecademy's projects, and the java ones are one the few I haven't done. xD

Apparently khanacademy is running some basic java courses, I'm not sure the quality of them as I have not worked on them myself.
Would you reccomend Java as a language? Right now i only know Assembly and AS3 (Stupid languages, I know. Kill me.)
If anyone needs a job in Software Engineering in the DC area, let me know. I have some great contacts here.

Best thing you could do is check reddit for Java learning channels. You will get links to many tutorial sites, schools that compete with code-academy, places to get example code etc.

In addition github is where many people put code for projects they've written, and sometimes there are tutorials.

Thank you for the replies, folks. I will take a look at some of the resources you mentioned. :D
