Really this video is a rather long winded and verbose comparison between three oranges and a lemon. The oranges seems to be citation managers and the lemon is Evernote which is in my view more likely a "competitor" to TW in that they are at heart databases of notes rather than citations. As I

I'm just adding two ideas here that should be possible with the text-slicer plugin: 1. There are music scores in XML format (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MusicXML) 2. Pdfs can be converted easily to html or xml (on linux / mac / windows 10 (linux subsystem) there's a commandline t

I ran the video at 1.25 speed, so might have missed something. *Summary* The interest was mostly about gathering and publishing references for published texts, which is somewhat of a niche specialty. Three of the products were aimed at gathering references. The same 3 had advanced PDF handling

Ciao Mark S. & Mat Both Mark's comment and the video kinda clarified some of my thoughts on TW. I do have an ongoing concern about SCALABILITY. Yep. It runs in browser and there are limits. BUT I also think in order to be able to design well to use it to its best at scale one needs to unders

[tw] Re: [not TW] Review of some competitors (@dev)

The problem is images. After you use TiddlyClip to grab the basic text (and format it into TW ), you have to go back and save each image you want to keep. Then change the captured text to use your external files. There's still no quick way to create an external uri tiddler. In addition, indexed

Mat Its interesting to me in its focus on (1) site scraping; (2) how well the discussed programs organise and present the scraped data. The mechanism TW needs for that is part covered by TiddlyClip. I think if we can scrape the data in a well prepared form the rest would be a doddle in TW and
