Hi all, This is probably the first time I have come up with a new TiddlyWiki adaptation without asking for help! Yay!
SourceStorm is an adaptation I did for myself to 1) create indexes of where to find topics in the books and ebooks in my library and files on my Cloud Drive 2) keep track of what chapters or pages I have read in each book 3) Also add highlights I add to webpages using Genius 4) Pin the tab in Firefox or open in the sidebar with a sidebar extension in Firefox Link: http://giffmex.org/experiments/sourcestorm.html Most of my adaptations are for actual quotes and notes. This adaptation is for briefly summarizing the thrust of a highlight in a book, followed by the source. I create empty *source tiddlers* whose existence tells me I have consulted the source in question, and whose titles tell me what pages or chapters I have added to this file, and tiddlers listed as having an UNF tag tell me I have not finished the notetaking process for them. The Sources search tiddler shows me all tiddlers tagged source, and the UNF tiddler shows me all tiddlers tagged UNF. The *project tiddlers* are either broad topics under which the subprojects appear, or subprojects in which the notes are placed. Both source tiddlers and project tiddlers are created with new here buttons In edit template I have a kind of place holder for adding the source I am workig from at the moment, which I then copy and paste after each note in the tiddler. The topmenu lets me alternate between viewing links to children tiddlers in a list search mode, and viewing the titles and text of children tiddlers as a printable index on that topic. (Open the tiddler John and experiment with the topmenu buttons to see the difference). So this will be a growing index of all the info in my library. I can add content by book chapters, or as a project where I research a given topic. My expected process will be: 1. Read a book chapter and take written notes as brief summaries, with page # OR 1. Read a webpage, highlight with Genius if needed, and grab the link 2. Transfer the summaries to the subprojects to which they belong 3. Copy and paste the source (author and title) from the edit template place holder, after the summary OR or copy and paste the URL after the summary 4. Create an empty source tiddler under the broad topic entitled with the book title abbreviation, the author if need be, and the chapters or pages I have read 5. Open a given broad topic, close the Links view template tiddler and open the Contents view template tiddler from the topmenu. This will give me a viewable, printable index of the topic with all its subtopics. I did not create an empty version, so you would need to import the system tiddlers (tiddlers with the $:/ prefix), plus the tiddlers Projects, Sources search and UNF to an empty TW file. Feel free to pilfer anything helpful you find in this experiment, for your own projects.
