I had a chance to hear 
[Alan Kay](http://www.viewpointsresearch.org/alan.html)
talk during a visit to HP Labs a week or so ago.  Among other things, it
motivated me to finally sit down and have a look at 
[Squeak](http://www.squeakland.org).

I'd heard [Ted Kaehler](http://www.squeak.org/us/ted/) and others talk 
about it.  I have fond memories of playing with Smalltalk at various times 
in the past, starting when I was an undergrad at CMU.  I know the 
folks in Extremadura include Squeak in the systems they deploy in schools, 
and I even came home from Malaga with a CD containing their packages!  But
I just hadn't ever gotten around to actually doing anything with Squeak.  

Now I have... and even better, so have my kids.  ;-)  In fact, while I 
think I understand what's actually going on better, my daughter now 
has spent much more time 
playing with eToys than I have.  I'm really curious to see how far she
goes with this...
