There was a Squeak web browser plugin early on so you could run Etoys or Scratch that way. Unfortunately they found out that schools had a very short list of browser plugins they allowed on their computers. Flash was included, Squeak was not. They failed to change that after years of trying. This motivated the MIT guys to port Scratch to Flash (very bad timing) and the ex Squeak guys to focus on Javascript (Lively Kernel and other projects).
