TW represents what computers should always have been doing -- fulfilling the 1945 Memex proposal, and lifting our thinking off of an accountant's balance sheet and onto a surf board (and then putting us back on the balance sheet if appropriate). The hyperlink and the mouse should have taken us quite directly to personal information management. Instead we got the Internet and carpal tunnel syndrome. Somehow we ended up with "typewriter plus" and "accounting ledger plus", when what we needed was "thinking plus". TW sets this right. The slow adoption, both of the application itself and its functionality (which by now should have inspired many new enterprises), must mean frightening things for humans. The continued development of TW is one of the more hopeful things I know of.
