ObjectWeb is a wiki where the pages are Squeak morphs. ObjectWeb pages are
created by adding morphs to a PasteUpMorph. So almost anything one can
create with standard morphs can added to a ObjectWeb page.
ObjectWeb was developed as a course project in an XP workshop at UIUC
taught by Ralph Johnson and myself, with John Sarkela acting as our XP
customer. For more information about ObjectWeb see:
http://wiki.cs.uiuc.edu/cs497rej/ObjectWebOverview.
Or you can skip the instructions and download the change sets at:

ObjectWeb is similar to MuSwiki from Georgia Tech, but with some
interesting differences. ObjectWeb uses http. As a result one can view gif
versions of most ObjectWeb pages via html browsers including Scamper. There
is an ObjectWeb server running at http://objectmanifold.dyndns.org:8888.
All pages at that site except the CatchMike and FreeCellClientCreate demos
can be views with a html browser.
We have an ObjectWeb browser running in Netscape & IE using the Squeak
plugin. It makes Netscape/IE a lot more dynamic. I am headed out of town
for a week and plan to put the plugin version on the ftp site when I get
back.
Currently ObjectWeb only runs in Squeak 2.7. Hopefully we can get it ported
to a more current version of Squeak in the fall.
