Abraham... you're in deed on to something *huge*, and those applications 
are a big part of what so far has been referred to as TWederation (or 
perhaps TiddlyWiki federation)! This is what I've been nagging about for a 
few years now. 

*...and, in fact, you're about 3-4 days away from seeing it implemented!*

...because I am, currently building *almost exactly* what you're talking 
about, even down to the terminology, on top of Jeds underlying mechanisms 
(Bob and TWederBob); a subscriptions system and a gallery display. And once 
we have more than one server there will be twCards, i.e a kind of identity 
card which we (mostly Jed) developed alreadyy several months ago for the 
first rendition of TWederation (a project that didn't scale well). Jed even 
made a wizard to create such twCards.

Now, you may be more interested in doing this for Maarfpad. No problem - 
this is all front end stuff so it can be transferred. In fact, you're more 
than welcome to pick up the very things I've created and tweak it for your 
own purposes. But, better yet, I would love to cooperate and develop this 
along with others. Jed is mostly focussed on the backend stuff and my focus 
is on UI. One major ambition is to eventually be able to use this very 
"platform" itself for the development of TW and TW-applications.

But, may I ask that you do something: To not miss out on good ideas, may I 
ask that you think about the things you would want to do and how to do them 
as much as you can before I show what I've done? That way you can more 
easily point out flaws in my implementation, i.e without having first been 
influenced by my design choices.

Jed and I are doing this for the benefit of the community because we've 
"seen the light", i.e that TWederation will radically change the whole TW 
project. But it is clear that friendly user interfaces are critical so this 
project needs all the brain power it can get. I believe the things I'm 
working on (fully dependent on Jeds TWederBob plugin and overall great 
support) will be a "wedge" to get people to start to use this. Time will 
tell...
