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.
