There sure are hurdles and advanced features in TiddlySpace for those that have so far only used a classical TiddlyWiki or perhaps a TiddlySpot to have it hosted and uploadable via your browser. However, your style example does not seem a good one to speak of barriers. It's always been best practise throughout the web and not just TW to use StyleSheets for abstract, reused styles. I do understand the reluctance that comes with editing or changing stuff in a collaborative environment. In that respect, the TiddlyWiki space for example indeed does come with way too much noise that one doesn't want to mess with unless one knows how and why exactly. tb.

I say keep with Google Groups - just noticed that the web version now has a new view, has Google +1.

Hi Smandoli tiddlywiki.org one was hosted on a MediaWiki: http://oldwiki.tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Main_Page Now it is hosted on TiddlySpace.com : http://tiddlywiki.org/ You are invited to contribute to the collection of information already present either by migrating stuff from the old wiki to the new wiki - or simply by creating your own spaces and use the tools TiddlySpace offer, to collect information from every public tiddler avaible on tiddlyspace.com ... I've made my own testTiddlySpace where I organize things in a way that I can maintain via a small collection of *very* powerfull tiddlyspace specific tools and develop in any direction I want - I'm using the tscan macro's search feature here: http://apps.tiddlyspace.gir.dk http://plugins.tiddlyspace.gir.dk and collect them here http://samlinger.tiddlyspace.gir.dk/ and here: http://tiddlyspace.gir.dk/ @tobias made some of his own listings for tiddlyspace.com plugins here: http://showroom.tiddlyspace.com/#Plugins @pmario has used the tscan macro for different social tools: iexample: http://news.tiddlyspace.com/ Cheers Måns Mårtensson On 9 Jan., 17:59, Smandoli themanthurs...@gmail.com wrote: I would LOVE to see this wealth of information moved to a better application than Google Group. I believe a site built on something like MediaWiki should become the first option for static or semi- static information. * Ability to flexibly control presentation for clarity * Community ownership (thus content moderation) * Participation by outer community * Topic-driven organization and navigation Both Google Groups and the friendly on-line TWs (I mean stellar resources such as giffmex and tiddlytools) fail on many of these needs. TiddlySpace also fails, though on very different points. The answer possibly is a MediaWiki site, similar to whathttp://senseis.xmp.net/ gives players of the game of Go. The Senseis site is helpful both as a reference for skilled players AND as an intro to raw beginners — and because of the latter quality, it effectively promotes the game of Go to the larger world. I said static or semi-static information to separate that from discussion. The Google Group is prolly better than a MediaWiki site for discussion (for example, I suspect it works well for TiddlyWikiDev). Maybe this GG would remain useful for discussion. Managing TW information is challenging because variants and specializations and spin-offs and up-scales are being developed with speed and variety. (Not like Go from that point of view!) This raises serious obstacles to investigation. For example, I might spend time researching an answer that seems valuable, only to realize it's specific to TiddlySpace or twGTD or some such. A robust wiki will address this effectively, by (A) disambiguating (such a wiki word!) and (B) declaring the topical boundaries. By that, I mean clearly defining what it does and doesn't try to address (and of course, referring the user to another resource for the latter). It's important to mention the point above, because success will require some planning and on-going moderation. I think MediaWiki offers the tools to facilitate (A) and (B) above; but if they are neglected, the resource will fail under this challenge of complexity. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups TiddlyWiki group.
