I guess this is what happens when you keep a project going this long... Ah it was called https://twitter.com/TiddlyWiki?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw;>@TiddlyWiki , and its still around. (cool!) Before mobile though it was just an HTML file with js that did FS operations to rewrite itself. I think? Was

Jeremy et al.. If we were to use Xememex please tell me how to say it?, Which syllables are emphasised?. As in my prior post the issue is ease of use and speaking. If when introducing tiddlywiki (by another name) do you really want to be forced to spell it?. With a surname like mine,

Late to the party, again. Tiddlywiki - the product has outgrown the name. Did so a long time ago, even before TW5. Xememex - what a beautiful word! Bad name for a product. That's as much of a "bump" as describing Tiddlywiki to a newcomer. Fundamental unit = tiddler? I've never agreed to this

Dear all, I confess that I sometimes rename 'tiddler' for my professional projects, *but* I also recall that "google" also sounded super-silly until it simply rewired our brains... I'll honor Jeremy's suggestion that this thread not descend into a popcorn of name candidates... and yet I do

Don't mind me. I just finished my first oh-so-excellent cup o' coffee for the day, and I'm in a zen mood. Just waxing a little philosophical: I don't see anything as a mistake. I see a thing as the culmination of a series of intertwingled things that came together into a particular result

Hi Thomas, If you make a search you will find at least two threads discussing the name and rebranding! One is this long thread https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/MKVwkEmCimQ/m/AEj6J534AQAJ I think the person who can make this important decision is Jeremy and I myself respect what he

I couldn't find if this topic has already been re-hashed this decade. But I was wondering if there is any value in discussing alternative names to the "Tiddly" part of the TiddlyWIki project. This project has been around for so long that renaming / rebranding would be quite an effort. And the
