Folks, To me each and every tiddler, is a "decent note book", so this is the most understated catchphrase you can use in my view.
Actually, I am always working to conceptualise tiddlywikis place in the greater universe, carefully abstracting all its capabilities and possibilities, and coming up with a a general name is as difficult as it is, for me to encapsulate my 30+ years in IT, it is next to impossible. However a different approach to classifying tiddlywiki and hopefully define it such that its user demographic recognises its value, may help. I have come to believe tiddlywiki may in its maturity and with appropriate editions and plugins could revolutionise software use, why you may ask, is this overreach? To me tiddlywiki is about democratising, making accessible to all, the power of programmable computers by providing a platform which many different user skills can make use of computers. - It breaks the barriers that stop people building applications, websites, designing their own personal organiser, private or cloud/server solutions. - It permits the common person to make use of decades of development in computers without commercial or coded languages acting as access gates. - Its a bit like when the development of printing presses empowered many to read and learn when prior it was only the priests and nobility who had access to recorded knowledge, in manuscripts that could not easily be copied and often locked away. They say printing the bible permitted followers to build their own relationship to it, rather than mediated by the priestly classes. - Tiddlywiki provides people access to modern software without gate keepers. Thoughts include - Own Your own software - A Software platform for all people to thrive on - The keys to the Information technology kingdom - Build Your Own BYO Software - Do it yourself software DIYS Thus an enthusiast like me has concluded that an investment in learning the tiddlywiki platform, is an investment of a life time, to empower me and those around me to make full use of modern technology. Its now not just a good bit of software but a "calling".
