Ciao Jed Great points, all of which I, basically, agree with.
But I also want to push back and point out it overlooks something equally important. I think its good to have this discussion because the kind of point I'm trying to make often is getting lost. I am not saying the wonderful diversity of TW should go or be hidden. But shoving it in your face if you are a simple user just wanting to just learn what TW can do can be overwhelming. A serious put-off. IF there were one universal starting point to try, maybe through Cloud, since that works on most everything, it would be a real plus IMO to getting TW better known. That is: one start point for newbies and then diversity. Not diversity first. Its a complication too far. I am absolutely convinced that take-up of Tiddly-Wiki is way below what it should be. And I think the mess of getting it running, and the sheer number of options, is one major part of that.
