Be Afraid...Be very Afraid...
The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way. - Heraclitus
Serialization refers to the idea that any object can be written (with its current state) to a file, a socket...any stream. You could take any object (not the class, but an actual instantiation) and blast it across the Internet if you wanted.
Just make sure that the class from which the object is instantiated "implements Serializable". This is just a "marker" interface meaning you do not have to implement any methods. It has no methods to be implemented.
Look at the ObjectStream classes for reading and writing objects this way.
Maybe any of the real experts on the Java Ranch can amplify this comment.
