Well I've been taking a java class for quite some time, and know quite a bit of OOP. But what should I move onto next?

I know all about variables, conditional statements(if, switch, while,etc.), random numbers, number formatting, user input, type casting and all that jazz.

Links to tutorials are great, thanks. :p

If you ever wished to implement GUIs or uimplement your programming skills for a job, I would look in to concurrent programming (using threads), and learn how to implement thread workers in to your classes. A very simple example is one thread to update the GUI, and one to take care of the logic - you can learn quite a bit more of the language like this!

Lesson: Concurrency (The Java™ Tutorials > Essential Classes)

Java's site has some neat tutorials on input/output, working with binary files, databases (such as odbc, sqlite) which are essential for applications.
