NoteTab was great, but I imagine the guy that wrote it must be getting up there. It was also Windows only.
Hyperlinking is one of those ideas that sounds really neat, but then turns out to have limitations. For one thing, if you change a title, you have to find and rewrite all those links. In the end, I usually use search features. The meta-problem with TW2 is that it is on its way out. But TW5, we are told, has a 25 year intended support plan. I think this might be done a bit tongue-in-cheek, but at least some thought is being given to it. There are a lot of orphan open source information managers out there. Wow, TW5 *is* a lot larger -- 10 times as large!! Oh well, that's technology. As time goes on, computing power and memory increases, making increased file sizes less of a concern. Have you tried using TW5 under firefox with tiddlyfox on the Android? Good luck!
