I’m trying to change that. I’ve started a meetup group in the Chicago area for
learning Squeak. I am hoping to have a lot of young people get interested in
it.
I have programmed in many languages and I find smalltalk to be the easiest to
read and understand. I’ve written code in come languages, that 6 months later
was completely foreign to me. I couldn’t remember what I was thinking when I
wrote it, nor even if I wrote it.
With smalltalk, I don’t find that. I actually enjoy programming.
Sincerely,
Joe.
