Through Planet Lisp, I found an introduction video to UnCommon Web (torrent). UnCommon Web uses the same techniques as Seaside, however I thought that it looked way more complicated than Seaside. All these macros with different names made it seem quite harder to use than Seaside. I wonder if that's because Seaside has been in development for a longer time and Avi has put more thought in usage or if it's a cultural difference between Smalltalk and Common Lisp? In either case, I think that if I had to develop a web application that required continuations, I'd go with Seaside. It's nice however that UnCommon Web can use Apache as its backend.
