TiddlyFox is the plugin for FF that lets you save _locally_

tiddlyspot.com ... is a server that lets you save online TWs back to the 
server. With old browsers it was possible to save from a "file://" 
tiddlywiki to "http://tiddlyspot.com";  which is _not possible_ anymore, 
since browser vendors tightened there security restrictions. 

The TW version used there is quite old. So IMO tiddlyspot isn't an option 
anymore.

http://tiddlyspace.com would be a possibility, if you have multiple editing 
users. For editing you have to be online too!

There are several possibilities, that depend on your usecase. Can you 
specify your usecase a bit more. 
eg: 
* Are there several people, that edit the TW
  * if yes: how many ?
* Do you have your own server?

TiddlySaver is needed for "WebKit" based browsers ... Chrome, Safari, 
Opera, 
TiddlyFox is needed "Gecko" based browsers ... FireFox, 

IMO for newbies the FireFox - TiddlyFox package is the best bet at the 
moment.

As Stephan wrote, a file based solution doesn't. tiddlyspace.com would be 
an option here, if your usecase fits.
