Jeremy, That would be a nice approach. TiddlyWiki will present itself nice and hopefully irresistible. New users will not use TiddlyWiki for long before they will want the full Tiddlywiki to be available as do the long timers.
Aside from that. In former discussions, many are the wishes, but tiddlywiki.com can not house all of them. That would end up a mishmash.
