Yes, yes, yes! Absolutely! I want Pharo to get this message out there.
I can help, but I cannot be the only voice. This is why I entreat you to write about these incredible developments and present them as essays at our website. I have focussed (or tried to focus) the world's attention on our web of social media (eg, WordPress, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn). Rather than having your message scattered everywhere, it should be in one place
where everybody is drawn to
.
That's the power of branding!
Someone mentioned to me that there are some incredible Pharo-related projects coming down the pike, that these developments should be made known to the rest of the world. To which I replied: * * * *
As I mentioned in a previous post, the amount of published information on Smalltalk (and Pharo) is voluminous. For me to curate all this information and summarize it on our website is daunting; I simply don't have enough time and energy. I need your help.
We have a couple of essays published at Smalltalk renaissance <https://smalltalkrenaissance.wordpress.com/category/essays/> .
We need more.
So please, take this unique opportunity to spread your message. Talk about all the great things coming out of Pharo. I will publish your essays and make you look good! You know where to send your submissions. Thanks. horrido wrote * *
This is our opportunity to answer the questions, concerns, and criticisms of non-Smalltalk developers, an opportunity afforded by the SRP, which is drawing much new attention to Smalltalk. We should exploit this opportunity and not waste it.
Suggested essay topics include:
- talk about actual use of Smalltalk in the enterprise - expand on the much-touted productivity advantage of Smalltalk (many people are skeptical) - explain how the experience of using the Smalltalk environment is superior to that of Eclipse, IntelliJ, Visual Studio, etc. - talk about future developments in Smalltalk, eg, concurrency features, new IDEs, new tooling, etc. - any other topics you may deem noteworthy
So, please, contribute an essay.

Without you, there is no campaign. /
Send all submissions to my personal email: horrido.hobbies at gmail dot com.
Thanks.
