The first GUI framework was written in Smalltalk. Smalltalk pioneered high-performance garbage collection. Refactoring began in Smalltalk. So did eXtreme Programming - SUnit spawned JUnit, NUnit, etc. Smalltalk's Seaside and Aida are innovative web frameworks. Smalltalk inspired Ruby - and powers MagLev, the concurrent, persistent Ruby. We ship containers, route trains, find oil, etch wafers, value insurance (all kinds), heal networks, restore power, etc. And we do it on a huge scale. We make money in Smalltalk (literally). Above all, we have fun

The innovation hasn't stopped! Come to Edinburgh and see practical cutting-edge work in Smalltalk, that most dynamic of languages.
