This is interesting. It sounds like @bimlas and @tonyM could cook up a really nice feature!
I think this gives some nice opposites to see connection that was otherwise hidden. It could make some emergence in the system of knowledge (tiddlers). could we discuss what this actually is? I am not quite sure. In TW we have tags, links and backlinks as the main relation between tiddlers tags can be hierarchies as in the TOC, and more network oriented. it gives us categories links is a stronger relation that tags, it gives us a direct connection to another tiddler. backlinks are also links, but not as intentional as normal links, thus these could bring some emergence and show connection you forgot. Two-way linking (forward linking) This mechanism that you are making has the potential to link to the future so we could call it forward linking (future linking also sound cool). It makes a link that appear when a matching tiddler is made in the future (and also for existing ones), a potential linking. I think this has the potential for creating emergence and show connection that were not obvious to you. BUT how do this differ from tags? tags (it you explore them) also show relation between tiddlers from different points in time, and could also be used as link to future potential tiddlers. However the forward linking makes this explicit without any user action. How do this differ from a search? as I understand, the filter that you define is the same as a search, right? So you could say that this provides a communication, where pas you can make a search for future you (wow time travel). I have the feeling that this could be something more than tags and search, but I am not quite sure. I think there is some interesting potential here. any way, what are your thoughts in this direction? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
