Hello all, I have been reading these conversations with great interest.
I have considered using TiddlyWiki for all sorts of things over the last 3 years since I saw someone using it in a presentation instead of ppt. However, I have never actually used it for a project. Now, I am determined to use it for my dissertation. Not to gather my notes, etc. but actually presenting my thesis in a html file rather than printing and binding a script. The main reason is that I would like someone to read the argument as I structured it AND to be able to explore the topic of my PhD in the order they find makes most sense. I thought I could arrange tiddlers as I would have sections in a linear form in a word file but ALSO use hyperlinks, tags, different indexes etc, for people to find their way around the information themselves. I started the process of getting my supervisors and the University to see the benefits of this idea and hope that they will agree for me to be able to do this. The current problem I face is that they struggle to get their head around how this would look in the end. Would anyone be able to suggest TWs that can illustrate what I am trying to do? Is anyone aware of this having been done before? Anything that you think could help me to illustrate the power of TW compared to linear presentations in word files would be beneficial as well. Thanks a lot in advance. Best wishes, Philipp P.S. I have (and will have) loads more questions, where shall I ask these? (e.g. will TW cope with stuff that is usually a 150 page document?) Shall I continue in here or should I start a new thread. I am not familiar with the code of practice in this community.
