I know Jeremy's trying to not make this all name related - but not being a
developer, don't think I can contribute to that part of the conversation. I
agree that it would seem logical to use a new name with a new significant
version, though I also agree that development has been so healthy lately
that I worry about that momentum starting because of a looming re-design on
the core.
With that, on naming... :)
- I agree and have experienced that the "Tiddly" / "Tiddler" naming is a
barrier for me to sell others on the software - doesn't seem serious
- I agree that "Wiki" in general undervalues what TiddlyWiki is these
days. I agree with others who consider TW more of a "platform". For example
I use it as a competitor to Microsoft PowerApps.
- I really like "card" - that's what I use when explaining TiddlyWiki
already and is totally self-explanatory given how it appears on screen.
Plays well with the various metaphors of virtual card boxes.
- I like "memex" after reading a bit about it. I agree that one concern
is that it's not obvious how to pronounce it...
- Related - Even if I knew how to pronounce it, I could tell them the
name and they may not know the spelling even close enough to even find
with
google - which could be problematic
- Maybe something else memex related but something that's more
intuitive to spell / pronounce? MemexCards, MemexDeck, MyMemex,
MemexPlatform, MemexPro, TheMemex
