Think you for you're insight.
TiddlySpace is a very strange website, compared to other services like Twitter or Tumblr. When I included the Spaces called faq and following, it changes the appearance of my home Space. It appears that new features, plugin's, and basic functions are added when you include different Spaces into you're own. *The Definition of a Space*: A Space is an online Wiki that may be controlled by a single user, or with other members. The name of the Space which the user created upon registering, can be considered to be their username. But the Space and a user's account are two separate things. A user can see their account by clicking on the fish-egg symbol in the top-right corner. From there, a user can create a new Space. But in the documentation, it says that the term 'User' refers to their 'Home Space'. But what would happen if the user was removed from their home Space (The first Space they started with)? Is this a good explanation? Do you have a "Space" that I can find? If so, then maybe we can work together on it? My TiddlySpace <http://theinvertedtower.tiddlyspace.com/> TiddlySpace Documentation → User Guides → Socializing On Tiddly Space → How to Follow User or Space Activity <http://docs.tiddlyspace.com/> I still want to know how to add features (Plug-in's?) and change it's appearance (Such as the themes other people use). However, this seems to require a good understanding of how HTML is applied. Is their a way you can include individual Tiddlers from other Spaces, besides making a copy of them? So if it becomes edited by it's User, it will be updated on you're own Space? Also, is there someone else who could help? I don't know how many times Google+ will let me post the same link to my Space, before it considers it spam. So it'll help if you could spread the word.
