I'd be interested how you think about TiddlyDesktop.

It supports both "single files" and "folders." In "folder mode" its running 
an internal server. But do we need to know that? What does it add knowing 
that in case of TD?

This has brought up the issue of dependencies v. "self-contained". For 
instance, do I really need to know Bob is a server? Not that I shouldn't, 
but what does that knowledge add to practical function? My interest in Bob 
is what it does, not how its constituted. Like TiddlyDesktop, it is 
self-contained. Once an "app" is self contained, who cares, so long as it 
does the job.

I think its a bit like cars. I'm really not interested whether its an 85 
cylinder thing. What does it DO? :-)
