Guy Kawasaki took a trip to Fallon McElligot in the summer of 1996. He took pictures, including one of Matthew Dornquast, the web developer we profiled last week. If you look closely you can see WebSTAR and Frontier on the screen of their Macs.

Here's a chance to do some collaborative development. We need a DLL to connect Frontier 5/Win to web browsers. Spyglass posted docs for a standard interface thru TCP, Apple Events, and DDE. We believe this interface is supported by both Netscape and Microsoft. We already have the Apple Event interface for Frontier/Mac. We want to get a similar suite working with the Windows product. We think the source code for the DDE interface on Windows should be public. Anyone want to do this? We'll get to it eventually if no one does it.

IBM has an interesting website that includes information on how the Smalltalk environment works.
