Thanks for your reply...

I had heard of TiddlySnip and thought it might be a good solution but
at the time (maybe 1.5 yrs ago) I got the impression it wasn't being
supported anymore, and my Firefox was newer than the last supported
version. I read that someone had made some kind of hacked update
available for newer browsers, and I was kind of scared to be
installing some binary XPI file that I didn't really trust. (At least
with JavaScript bookmarklets/TW plugins/etc, everything is plain text
so you can at least try to review the source code for maliciousness.)

Has TiddlySnip been picked up again? I'm on Firefox 7 now (my
TiddlyWiki 2.6.1 still seems to be working) & not sure how compatible
it would be... I will search below later tonight and see what I find.

I am definitely looking for something that will let me send myself
tiddlers from any JavaScript-capable browser, whether I'm on my iPhone
or friend's laptop or Droid or at work or what have you.

That brings up another question, how would you send yourself the
tiddler... I would think opening a mailto URL would work on just about
anything. The only alternative would be posting to a Web form but then
you have to develop that and host it out on some site. Yuck.

Thanks again
