For me its the ability to change TW without being a Computer Science
specialist. Its about making my own tool to aid my own thinking. Also,
I like community aspect, i read messages every day and  enjoy reading
about developments. There is a soap opera angle for me -- hope this
does not sound so strange.....

I think TW has changed the way I think. I arrived at TW after using
many tools - mindmaps and Compendium (an open university hypertext
mapping project)

The fact that TW works in the browser makes it easy to cut and paste
from the internet is a big plus.
