Re "Saving" could TiddlyWiki default to the BrowserStorage Plugin, but automatically draw a banner at the top of the window once a certain number of changes or edit time has passed? The banner could link to a tutorial on saving methods.
Rationale: - let people get the buzz of making their own tiddlers straight away - delay the advanced topic of saving methods until the user knows whether TiddlyWiki fits how their mind works. I am going to see if I can make a table comparing all the different saving methods with pros and cons for each. I think I have tried every different method because I love my Tiddlywikis so much I will endure a lot of pain to save them! I have settled on TiddlyDesktop but am disappointed that the ExternalAttachments for TiddlyDesktop plugin can't cope when the TiddlyWiki is on a network drive (Google File Stream).
