Dog Food

Coderspiel mentions Seaside in the article The right tool for the slob:

And freaking Smalltalk programmers—what could possibly be harder to deploy?—host their own site, their "CMS" if you must, for the Seaside web framework. The site isn’t always fast, it’s probably not always running, but at least the framework has the courage to show itself.

There are many more examples:

  • Squeak is the official web site for Squeak. The web site is based on SmallWiki running on Squeak.
  • SqueakSource is the official source code repository for Squeak. The web application is based on Seaside running on Squeak. The SqueakSource source code is hosted on SqueakSource.
  • Seaside-Hosting is a free hosting service for Seaside applications. The web application is based on Seaside running on Squeak. The Seaside-Hosting management interface is hosted on Seaside-Hosting.
  • Talking Meta. The post you are reading is displayed to you through the Blog plugin for Pier, a CMS written on top of Seaside running on Squeak. In fact, this very blog was the initiator for this blog’s blog plugin.

On the dog food front, you might mention the Cincom Smalltalk website - it uses WebToolkit with Smalltalk Server Pages now, but a Seaside based site is in the works.
