No joy in blogtown - the Macbook pro isn't booting. So... Off to the Apple Store tomorrow when I get home

There's no Smalltalk Solutions in 2009, but Cincom has plans: instead of asking you to spend your time and money coming to the conference, we'll be coming to you with a series of seminars.  We'll have lots of great information about where Cincom Smalltalk is going this year, including:

• ObjectStudio 8 - we're bringing the modeling tool back
• VisualWorks - lots of improvements across the board
• Web Velocity - a new way to build dynamic web applications

We'll have information on times and places soon - check back here regularly for updates.  We'll see you down the road!

ObjectStudio 8 is the first - and only - Windows Vista certified Smalltalk environment. If you need to build applications that cleanly fold into a Microsoft-centric infrastructure, ObjectStudio 8 is the best choice.

Want to make your design and development easier? Need to simplify the complexity of your business applications? With the Modeling Tool in ObjectStudio 8, we make that possible by:

• Providing a complete environment for developing applications starting with object-oriented analysis and design
• Building models that can be imported directly into the ObjectStudio environment.
• Provides roundtrip engineering (design and develop the application and go back to perfect it as required - rare and powerful)
• Creating high-level business-like interfaces
• Delivering user-friendly tools for working with objects

With ObjectStudio 8, building a model of your business visually is simple using tools resembling outlining and drawing applications. The Modeling Tool generates the Smalltalk code that drives the model when imported into ObjectStudio 8. This is one of the many strengths of ObjectStudio.

Grab it, try it, fall in love with it!

By simplifying the engineering and design process for a business level Engineer and allowing a design architect to develop, ObjectStudio 8 is making the solution to your complexities simply possible.

Revisit the Fun at the Seaside! From the keynote address to the final panel discussion, the Smalltalk Solutions Conference in Reno last month covered the gamut of tools and techniques, answers and opportunities you need for building brilliant systems—including solutions in Seaside. As a Smalltalk user, you know that Smalltalk communities are the most active in object-oriented development. You'll want to check out the sessions you might have missed or capture the nuances that might have escaped your attention. You'll especially want to listen to the Web Velocity™ session. Web Velocity is Cincom's soon to be released web development solution oriented around Seaside for Web Development and Glorp for Object/Relational Mapping.
