At the moment everything is ready but automation and documentation. If you 
want to poke it and see what happens I have the most recent version here 
<http://ooktech.com/jed/ExampleWikis/TWederation/>.

To make up for the near complete lack of documentation, here is a quick run 
down of how it works:

Make a copy of the wiki wherever you want your TWederation wiki to be (or 
just put a wiki there and import the plugins, all 4 of the plugins that 
start with $:/plugins/inmysocks/TWederation-)

Fill out the form that appears as the default tiddler 
($:/plugins/inmysocks/TWederation/Initial Configuration/Create twCards) and 
click on 'Create twCard' at the bottom. Then go to to the Communication (in 
the table of contents tab on the right)

In that tiddler, go to the Fetch Communication tab, next to What to Fetch 
select All Wiki twCards and next to Select Wiki select TWederation, ignore 
the other things and click on 'Request Bundle'

In a moment there should be a link under the Request Bundle button, open 
that tiddler. In that tiddler click on Unpack All

Then in the Communications tiddler change What to Fetch to All Identity 
twCards and click on Request Bundle again, a new link will appear in a 
moment (so now there are two of them), click on the new one and click on 
Unpack All in the tiddler that opens.

You now have what you need to leave or fetch messages from whoever else has 
been listed. It may just be me.

Then in the fetch communication tab you can switch to blog posts, messages 
or whatever you want to try fetching. Under the other tabs you can view 
messages or posts or make posts and leave messages for other people.

Note I said 'leave' not 'send', this is a distributed system, not a 
client-server architecture. So you need to fetch messages or posts from 
people and they need to fetch them from you. In the future that will be 
automated so there will just be a 'check message' button that will get them 
for you.

You can fetch the twCards from TWederation again later to check if other 
people have been added. Right now without the automation it is all a bit 
tedious, but it works.

Some other notes:

When you make the twCard at first it also sends an xmlhttprequests that 
submits some information in a google sheet so that I can then retrieve that 
data and make the twCards from it. So I have made a widget to submit google 
forms and one to retrieve data from a google sheet. Unfortunately they 
aren't very flexible at the moment so if you want to do something else with 
them you will have to play with the code a bit.
