Highly recommended.

Thank you, Mathias. That is almost the one that I have been looking for. I 
agree with you. TiddlyWiki is highly recommended. It is so great! :-)

I really love the user interface that the TiddlyWiki offers. Clicking on a link 
results in just inserting additional contents, instead of jumping to another 
web page and thus loosing current contents.

The topic that Alexandro suggests gives me a good opportunity to consider what 
I have being looking for for years.

After deep considerations with good taste of a bottle of red wine, I have 
reached a conclusion. The OpenOffice.org is the best one I have been looking 
for.

The OpenOffice.org Writer and Master Document are able to hold various embedded 
objects such as spread sheets, presentation slides, and text documents 
themselves and simple files such as photo images and also Microsoft Office 
files...

Now I have become to feel that I would like to start development efforts of somewhat 
so-called "OpenOffice.org Notebook."

It would save contents into a tree structure consisting of several hierarchical 
directories (folders), instead of a single ZIP archive format.

Its physical directory (folder) structure, reflecting a corresponding ODF ZIP 
file format, could be shared with several PCs and users by properly using a 
file lock facility.

The directory (folder) could be shared with several PCs and/or users through 
Common Internet File System (CIFS), aka SAMBA, protocol, and/or NFS, UFS, and 
so on.

"Mercurial," a version control system, might be involved to track history of 
changes.

The reason why I would like OpenOffice.org rather than such a web interface, 
e.g. TiddlyWiki offers, is WYSIWYG.

I would like to just type anything being come up with in my mind on the notebook, instead of clicking on a 
link "Edit" and facing somewhat magical spells and then accepting "Done" or 
"Save."

I have been using "Emacs" for the purpose for decades. This opportunity could  
be a good chance for evolution!

Don't you think so?

Best regards,
Tora
