The purpose of my TiddlyWiki is collect information about Medicine, health, and personal development. (All one subject from my perspective)
I have a license to practice Chinese Medicine and previously created a relational database (Filemaker) to use for my education and as a resource to use in the clinic. It was a fantastic application, which taught me many things about data and the power of computers to manipulate data. But that is a story for another day. .. . . I am still in the process of learning about what will be possible to achieve using the TiddlyWiki tool box. I understand the concepts behind relational data systems, but I do not know how to code. I wish to create a hyperlinked document that combines essays, books, definitions and annotated link lists. It will be an "organic" development, which I want to use and develop over several years time. My dream would be to create a "Gateway" that can collate all my research, - with Story? paths that help people to discover more about Health and Wholeness. I like the Free Form openness of a Wiki and have been seeking a good one to use for awhile. It could easily grow to a very large size depending on how much time I can afford to apply to research and data entry. My thought is that I might need to create TiddlyWiki files for the individual books, and subject categories, which I can search and link from a central hub? Currently I am creating it Locally on my own MacBook Pro. In the future it may become a multi-user collaboration. I have uploaded what I have thus far created to my website: http://www.pharmanexis.com/ Login as Visitor, PW Visitor I so appreciate your willingness to support.
