Being connected to the internet is going to be a necessity for any piece of software in the immediate future. So every Smalltalk development environment or application should have that capability as default. To push that envelop, every image should have a Smalltalk native Internet Browser. By developing that Internet Browser, we are demonstrating the power of Smalltalk. There is no reason why Smalltalk cannot be as intimate to the World Wide Web as Javascript. We can have the IDE in Smalltalk, Internet Browser in Smalltalk and a WWW language in Smalltalk. As is uniquely Smalltalk, every bit of code is visible, modifiable and debuggable. This supped up environment will grow and grow to be a full OS.

How can we gather the relevant Smalltalk code and necessary plugins to make an Internet Browser? I remember Croquet had internet browser and video player. What is missing?

All the best,
