The basically the idea is that tags are tiddlers and as such can be tagged. That allows you to create a hierarchal structure of tags. And with renaming of tags, creating new tags, and retagging to modify your structure as you go.

[tw] Re: Best way to organize TW?
One's approach is of course a completely personal decision and depends very much both on the degree of structure of the topic domain, and most importantly your familiarity with that topic and its structure. Regarding granularity, my rule of thumb is to keep things as large as possible, only break down into smaller chunks when those bits truly need to be in multiple locations, under different topics. Inclusion works well if sequencing is important. The critical difference is between collecting files for your own personal use, and publishing ones when you're ready to share a topic domain with others. I've spent so much time creating navigation/scaffolding in TW for different topic domains I've resolved not to do so anymore, until I've become so familiar with the topic I know I'm approaching the ability to do it once and for all which of course is never really true, just relative to starting from scratch. I've found pure tagging to be the best approach in the beginning. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.

[tw] Re: Best way to organize TW?
Hi Ian Do i add each bit of info as its own tiddler? Or do i organize info into container tiddlers? Example: Want to add a link to a website. Do I make a separate tiddler for a single link? Or do I add the link to a list contained in a links tiddler? I guess the dilemma arises when i think about how I want to find or link to that piece of info later. Link: http://tiddlywiki.org/#[[Content%20Management]] ! Information in a tiddler There are several optional information holders in a tiddler, i.e holders that allows access to the information from other tiddlers. * Tags: Data entered in the tags field * Slices: Data entered into a simple two column table. The first column lists the field name and the second column the respecive data. The typical example is the table in the beginning of plugins listing Name, Version etc. * Sections: Are what are defined and separated by headings, i.e the ! mark (!, !!, !!!) * Fields: Can be seen when clicking the tiddler menu morefields. This typically contains meta information about the tiddler but can contain any information.

[tw] Re: Best way to organize TW?
That is a puzzle -- I agree. I have discovered it takes a while to find the right way to chunk your data. A completely granular approach has never worked for me; I do use it, though, for knowledge-bits that don't seem to have a place. Sometimes I have broken tiddlers down into more discrete bits, but more often I gather them up. Working knowledge-bits is a messy business, and TW makes it just as messy as it wants to be. One reason TW works so well is I can go ahead with my decision, whichever it is, knowing that revising the approach later is not difficult. My personal catch-all TW (ideas, quotes, philosophical notions, petty daily details, journaling and so on) tends to be granular. It uses links to connect tiddlers only on a lucky day; tags are what really hold it together. In my TW for program code snippets, I carefully tag everything; but in practice I find stuff by scrolling through the titles or using a simple search. The tiddlers are very long because my coding is very bad. I have a different TW for Bible notes; it doesn't use tags much at all and is more tightly organized with larger tiddlers, because the overall scheme or framework for the information is already in place for me mentally (though TW proceeds to let me find surprises outside my mental grid). All this means the information should be allowed to sort itself, and the shape of things can differ according to the overall purpose. (That means using multiple TWs makes sense to me.) While the information approach is taking shape, there's a lot of experimenting and some false starts; but it all works out, and it seems to me that the process is beneficial. Sometimes it lets me internalize my understanding. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
