Tiddly Wiki is a personal notebook which can be used to store all your thoughts in an easy to manage flash cards style system. You can easily link from one card to another as well as group topics and thoughts with tags #nohashtagneeded. It comes in a single file which can be opened and edited

Ciao TonyM & all A small footnote to last. Though I had no idea what it was or what to do with it, it was seeing Eric Shulman's TiddlyTools some long time ago that alerted me to TiddlyWiki. It stuck in me despite not using it at the time. And some years later I came back & re-looked at it and

Again, thanks to everyone for contributing to another interesting thread. To kick off, for a long time my ambition for migrating from Google Groups has been to eat our own dog food and move to a TiddlyWiki-based discussion board. Part of the motivation is that I believe we could build a tool

I didn't know there was a Reddit for tiddlywiki. I will go stealth reading it for a while. I use reddit to get very specific news about very specific things. sub-reddits that turn into a forum (like this) I drop pretty quickly. But, that's just my useage pattern. I am fully away others work

I totally agree. AND disagree. BEFORE tiddlywiki.com how about PINNING here? The problem with talking about tiddlywiki.com is its one step too far away from anyone but @Jermolene doing anything. Like its "over there that it gets done" (by who?). The issue, at root is about MAKING A DECISION

What about trying a forum ? We can easily bring up a forum on any free tier, for example an heroku app and if it suceeds we can port it to whatever paid plan fits out needs, and maybe Jeremy could create an a record like forum.tiddlywiki.com for it. All are very straightforward and small steps

Re: [tw] Re: Home Sweet Home ... are TiddlyWikiDev & TiddlyWikiDocs worth keeping?

Ciao dg I agree with you that many *SEARCHES for TiddlyWiki bring up both Classic & TW5*. Since TW5 is NOT fully downwardly compatible *it can create confusion* having those results. *Different names should have been used, really* as they are different things. They weren't named so

Re: [tw] Re: Home Sweet Home ... are TiddlyWikiDev & TiddlyWikiDocs worth keeping?

Pinned threads would be very helpful! Since most of the great TW tutorial sites are for TWC, sorting out what works for the current incarnation is a real problem. I don't know how applicable that material is, so I stay away from it. A source of current, curated content would help a lot.
