I love that TiddlyWiki and TiddlySpot are free and open-source. But this TiddlySpot edit-outage made clear how much I have been relying (since 2005 or so) on Simon and Daniel's attention to this unique server, and it sounds like I'm not alone. (You all never hear from me anymore when things are going well, because I poured my nerd-energy into customizations for the first few years and have been coasting ever since.)
Although I don't "profit" from TiddlySpot or TiddlyWiki in any direct way, I don't know how I'd teach without them, since nothing else lets me customize a powerfully responsive non-linear web of A/V resources to have at my fingertips in the classroom and ALSO lets me send students to the same source in read-only form to poke around and explore related ideas with tightly-knit internal links. In addition to studying the information I'm curating for them via the TiddlySpot site, they can also try practice quizzes (with sliders to reveal answers and explanations, as well as more links). Somehow all the dedicated courseware code I've seen (moodle, Blackboard, etc.), to which universities devote lots of attention, still offers nothing comparable. (I know, I'm preaching to the converted here...) I'm pulling up the "Donate" link at TiddlySpot again, wanting not to take this platform for granted: http://tiddlyspot.com/?page=donate -Elise On Tuesday, November 14, 2017 at 5:33:17 PM UTC-5, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Simon Baird, one of the TiddlySpot creators/admins replied to me on > Twitter: > > https://twitter.com/simonbaird/status/930263126078996481 > > Great news for everybody, and many thanks to Simon and Daniel for their > indomitable support efforts, > > Best wishes > > Jeremy > > > [image: image1.png] > > -- > Jeremy Ruston > [email protected] <javascript:> > https://jermolene.com > > On 14 Nov 2017, at 22:10, @TiddlyTweeter <[email protected] > <javascript:>> wrote: > > Its working for me ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxxx46eCp08 > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "TiddlyWiki" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected] <javascript:>. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > <javascript:>. > Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/group/tiddlywiki. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tiddlywiki/5a3a3f36-9a1c-45b9-87ef-6f5492222a9d%40googlegroups.com > > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/tiddlywiki/5a3a3f36-9a1c-45b9-87ef-6f5492222a9d%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
