I noticed the Taffy js a few months ago and originally thought it would make a great addition to Tiddlys.
It could potentially partially replace many of the plugins already in use and provide a nice platform for specialized things like GTD, goal setting, small business, etc. I then realized that without easy input/output functions, it would certainly be too difficult for most users (certainly me) to utilize. Nonetheless, it still looks promising. Happy Holidays to All.
