Birthe, I really appreciate your continued help. Alas, on either browser (FF or Chrome), using either of the top 2 twcloud links, the process is held up at the point of loading my dropbox. If it's just me, there must be something about my dropbox (perhaps how many files, or their size, or

Birthe, thanks for clarifying that the access should be *through* the "TiddlyWiki5 in the Sky" page (so, not analogous to TiddlyDrive's process). So, there must be something that's supposed to resolve (and that does resolve for you), where I'm getting stuck on the the "Loading..." message.

+1 here for "I'd gladly pay for Tiddlyspot!" Of course, if there's a pricing structure being hammered out, I'd vote for allowing trial interval, and/or up to ??MB worth of TW storage, for free. For my own purposes, though, tiddlyspot has been such a game-changer that I'd not only pay, but

It doesn't pay to get too attached to any company. What I learned the hard way on my own site was that a service can be sold overnight and change completely. This is why I currently pay by the half year even though it's more expensive. When you change, and are forced to cancel, you'll forfeit
