The 'Shared Smalltalk Workspaces' [http://ws.stfx.eu] service is indeed old 
(but has been working unattended for years). It was later hijacked (in a good 
way) by the Playground. It should indeed be upgraded a bit, I'll look into it 
but can't promise anything.

Do note that you can paste a SSW URL like http://ws.stfx.eu/CJGVYTTQD3RY into 
Spotter to open it in a new Playground. A cool, but hidden feature. So 
technically there is no need for more.

You can also access a page with the following expression:

ZnClient new
  systemPolicy;
  beOneShot;
  accept: ZnMimeType textPlain;
  url: 'http://ws.stfx.eu/CJGVYTTQD3RY';
  get.

Maybe an additional menu item somewhere ?
