Partial List of Etoy Projects

The list below is not meant to tantalize unfairly (because we haven't 
yet put out hints and project books for most of them). The reason I 
put out the list here is to encourage people who have gotten 
interested in etoys to look further before trying to find out what 
Squeak can do outside of etoys. (But for those who do want to find 
out and are well versed in computing, please visit 
http://www.squeak.org).

Our impression is that most folks who have started in etoys have 
tended to stay with projects that are like the examples given on the 
website and have not gone much beyond those examples. This is just to 
point out that there are lots of really interesting mathematical, 
scientific and theatrical projects for which etoys are a pretty neat 
authoring environment.

Cheers,

Alan
