Ciao Abraham

1 - *I am not a programmer and don't want to be one* :).  

2 - I got strongly into TW because* the gap between objectives and 
technique to realise them is narrow*. In other words its an efficient tool 
for an end user interested in achieving variant concrete aims.

3 - Commit to benefit: For me after, using TW a while, I "committed" to it. 
My feeling was, and still is, that it can achieve most everything I need to 
do. Sometimes it takes a while to get there though and I often need help 
from others. It does take a bit of
* time to learn how to do new things in it.*
4 - Never again with longevity: This is enough: I do NOT want to ever have 
to confront learning another system is detail again. The fact TW is, 
ultimately, "*just a web page*" gives it longevity. So even if I stopped 
using it the "document", as important as the "program" aspect of it, gives 
it high survival value in an otherwise very volatile environment. So, TW is 
flexible and rich enough for most of my needs and stuff I make won't get 
lost. 

5 - But weak networking: My only caveat to that is the "social network" 
side of TW is currently cumbersome. Hopefully some of the newer initiatives 
will alleviate that issue.

6 - Building products: I'm mainly interested in *building end Wiki with 
specific aims* (e.g. briefing to students of film; screenplay writing; 
analysis of literature; galleries of art & art process; anthropology 
notes). I'm not really interested in the "why?", mainly only the "how?"

7 - Scalability: I recently started using "Bob" extensively which makes a 
lot easier the efficient scaling up production of Wiki. That was always my 
aim. *To produce working "intelligent documents" efficiently*. I guess you 
could think of "Bob" as a "development environment." As an end user I think 
of it as a* neat way to speed up what I do and hone it precisely* to my own 
way of working.

Best wishes
Josiah
