Hi si, If you install the tw-locator plugin and follow the readme to create a "folder" tab, you can use tab to create folder-like structure. So tag can define the tiddler's location in that "file system" And for link, they are just quick button to open other file, when you are reading a file. 在 2020年4月8日星期三 UTC+8下午8:12:56，si写道： > > I have a feeling that I am not utilizing links as well as I could be so > I'm wondering how others approach using tags and links. > > Currently I pretty much exclusively use tags to structure my wiki.

Si, In the prerelease version there is the freelinks plugin. It highlights text that is also found in a tiddler title. This creates a link to open that title so it allows you to discover matching titles. If you add to this the ability in the editor to excise selected text into at tiddler and link that phrase will be highligited anywhere it appears in future. In this case you do not need to rely on tags. There are in fact too many possibilities with tiddlywiki to share them all, with predictive text options being explored in Editor Magic of Mats and prior work. I also believe even when we are collecting apparently unstructured information possible tags and categorizations of a general nature start to appear, you can then leverage tiddlywikis flexibility and introduce these as needed gradually semi-structuring and learning from your content.

Hi there, Think of my as your long-time, IT-wise very untrained, far older than most, every day- user (closer to 10 years). My usage: diary, idea collection, managing personal "projects", "knowledge-base", documentation of brains-farts (of which there are plenty...). Over time I have started using tags cloud-like and to manage functions that allow for effective filtering. Beauty is: you can pretty make up your own system any way you like. I'm sure there are a lot smarter and better organized wizards out there - really depends on what you want to do, I guess...
