@Jeremy and @Tobias : > > Why iframes? Have two windows and you're set. >
Ok, the idea is really to use it as a* social tool* by being able to share an iframe (e.g by posting it here or by having someone import it from their site) so that people get a live channel, possibly for communication (more below), in their own TWs. People should not have to browse to a site or use separate windows, they should access this via their own TWs. Hadn't planned on detailing this quite yet, which was sparked in a discussion <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/K9O5eBkIuW0/YrXUWwb1RYIJ> with Tobias some time ago, but here's an illustration of the concept. See the attached image. Imagine having this, in an iframe (or other method), appear in your own TW: <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-n6zb1fy2Z2E/VKS3zLaKv9I/AAAAAAAAPEM/OmWm6R6Nqb4/s1600/Unofficial%2BTiddler.png> A live list that you can drag'n drop from. The topic could be TW stuff (themes, plugins, ...) but also any other matter (tiddlers with recipes, musicvids,..). All allowing the viewer to drag'n drop import into their own TW. And such an list could (hopefully) also be a list of other iframe tiddlers so that you could make "lists of lists". Such lists could be manually compiled or aggregated automatically using something like Erwans Community Search (that I ask about here <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/eZqoogwCrZ0/imK4qf34mY0J> - I link to that thread because it is also part of the greater idea behind these iframe questions). This would mean a user can also add content to the lists. Say you create a new plugin and e.g tag it with "Plugin", this get's pulled into a Community search filtering out plugins and is added to such a plugin list, which you see in your iframe tiddler titled "latest plugins" in your own TW. Pretty darn cool. More niche subjects ("rock'n roll music") would mean a kind of formation of "interest groups" with unofficial content.. "Unofficial" in the sense that tw.com does not have to be involved (but if such an "iframe tiddler" became good or popular enough, it could then be included on tw.com and become official). So, for it to make sense I really think it relies on being able to drag the lnik straight out of this iframe (or whatever the solution is). The lists should be contained in your own local tiddler for convenience and you can add your own meta data to them. Does this make sense?Sorry if my explanation was more elaborate than the question ("Why iframes?") <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWikiDev" group.
