G'day Birthe,

Plans for that site?  I'm thinking links to general ADHD resources, my own 
ADHD experience/journey, using the writing process to, in parallel, define 
this thing I call Intertwingularity Mapping, how I'm using TiddlyWiki to 
support Intertwingularity Mapping.  That's the thing: I have a general 
idea, but not quite sure how to plan ahead for content and structure.  To 
me, the great thing about any good wiki, you don't need a plan at all.  Let 
it all organically emerge/evolve from a stating point of just a simple list 
of things.  No big requirements up front.   Kind of a Rapid Application 
Development approach.  Incrementally and iteratively tweak/adjust.  Things 
like componentization of information, emerging/evolutionary structuring of 
information, testing this  "agile malleability of information" theory in my 
head, all while putting together this huge intertwingled mess of ADHD 
things in my head.

Without going to far into my ADHD experience:  I have a hard time with 
verbal communications that involves more than one person and more than one 
topic.  It boils down to over-stimulation when there is too much going on 
at once because everything/anything grabs my attention.  I can stay focused 
much more easily when dissecting one thing to pieces, so a one-on-one 
dialog about the simple things I need for communications/meetings, that I 
could handle, even better if via skype (just audio) to eliminate visual 
distractions.  Let's just say it is all pretty bat-poop-crazy complicated 
to explain, but the solutions to keeping me focused are ridiculously easy 
(if the other side, from my perspective, didn't treat it as some kind of 
power struggle: I want to do everything they ask, I just need a way of 
doing those things in a way I can manage.)

All of that, an attempt to give a simple answer, has turned into something 
akin to a whole bunch of spaghetti and meatballs flung at a wall (i.e. a 
disorganized mess), kind of a reflection of my head.  Eventually, I hope my 
TiddlyWiki-centered Intertwingularity Mapping process will turn the mess of 
ADHD stuff in my sponge into something coherent.

Before getting into ADHD content, the first thing I want to do is blog 
about (Intertwingularity Mapping) Preserving "Information Context" via 
"Information Folding", and applying that concept with the DetailsWidget.  
I'm just not crazy about calling it "preserving information context" (i.e. 
keeping information I'm looking at still visible while viewing some other 
detail midstream).  That's got my whole focus right now.

There I go, all wordy as per my nature ...
