"only in seaside" type apps

Hi all - beyond the brilliance of DabbleDB, can I ask, what are some
other apps that have been built in Seaside that couldn't have been
built another way? I know Auctomatic (a Y Combinator startup) is
building their tools in Seaside - any other interesting examples?

I have the opportunity to build and deploy some apps internally in
Seaside at a big company in the nearish future. Initially it's going
to be a weekends thing, so I'll probably start with a simple blog
and/or wiki, but afterwards, I want to go in an interesting direction.

Also - I'm doing a presentation on Rails and Seaside at OSCON very
soon. It's more a high-level, "what is the future?" kind of thing, but
I would love to sneak in some cool plugs for sites in Seaside, so if
you've got something nifty and you don't mind a little publicity, hook
me up with links. :-)

Anything that can be built with a Turing complete language can be
built with any other Turing complete language.

Shouldn't you chosse the tool for the job instead of the other way around?

How about "social programming" applications.
Something like how a wiki is a social text document creation application.
But, in a "social programming" web site you can update the application/site, in the application/site itself, shared socially through browsers.


Cheers,
Darius

Giles,

Another instance of SqueakSource (http://www.squeaksource.com/), but
running on top of GemStone/S is GemSource (http://seaside.gemstone.com/ss).
And Lukas neglected to mention that his site
(http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/) also running on top of Seaside:).

Of course. The job here is learning Seaside. The application I develop
in Seaside will be the tool for that job.

Damn! Wish my German were better. Or existent, even. That looks cool.

There are three on the Demos page of Seaside Parasol not already mentioned.
Run Basic, Bountiful Baby, and Bad Page.

We have just released the implementation of an on-line competition
associated with a T.V. show of The History Channel.

The web site is here:

http://www.thc.tv/classicalbums

It is all developed with Seaside. Running context is:

Linux
Apache (for serving static content and load balancing)
Postgres
SqueakVM 3.9-8
Seaside 2.8
Squeak 3.9

The application is rather small, but I believe it is a great example
of a commercial project developed for a multinational company using
Seaside.  And since so many people is usually asking where are the
successful commercial projects developed on Seaside, I thought It
would be good news to tell the community about this project, that
although small, has corporate customers happy.
The competition is enabled only once a week, during July, for all
spanish speaking countries in Latin America.
Cheers !

While being a true statement, it isn't particularly illuminating. :)  
For example, brainf*ck, x86 Assembler, Haskell and Smalltalk are all
Turing complete languages.  You can do the same things in any of them.  
But the amount of work required is going to vary drastically. :)
