Right. The "generate-your-own-wiki" using clicks I think has great merit. Building applications on the fly for a purpose I think bridges part of the gap towards rich potential applications end users are interested in. This approach is used, FWIW, for other JS based apps you can find online. Its usually a way of handling their "plugins" to build "my edition". ...

At an obvious level we lack a decent SHOWCASE. There is nowhere a user can easily go shopping for examples of decent variety of things acheived. For instance, Gamers, who do use TiddlyWiki quite a lot, yet we don't have a single example Game Campaign to show off. Apply that to any area you can think of. We seriously lack examples.

Dead right. Part of this is about, I think, being orientated towards END ORDINARY USAGE first.

I think this is a discussion worth having and pondering and working on. Best wishes Josiah -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
