GROOVY

A little bit of throw back lexicon. Can you dig it? It’s analog.

According to Wikipedia, the term groovy originated in the early forties among jazz musicians getting into sync with the rhythm of their music. It also refers to the grooves in a vinyl record. When you are in the groove you are flowing. When things are flowing they’re groovy, cool, hip, right on.

But that’s old speak, tired, lame, boomer language. We are in the digital age now. Things aren’t so simple minded.

Step up, retire your old slang. Groovy is now a Java-syntax-compatible object-oriented programming language for the Java platform. It is both a static and dynamic language with features similar to those of Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk.

You probably already knew this.
