I'm the original creator of TiddlyWiki (nowadays, it's more of a group effort). I work at BT where I am Head of Open Source Innovation.

I can be reached at jeremy (at) osmosoft (dot) com, and I regularly read and reply to messages on the TiddlyWiki Google Groups. I blog at http://jermolene.wordpress.com/ and you can also find me on Flickr and del.icio.us.

TiddlyWiki

Tue, 05 Jun 2007 11:08:00 GMT

TiddlyWiki is a complete wiki in a single HTML file. It contains the entire text of the wiki, and all the JavaScript, CSS and HTML goodness to be able to display it, and let you edit it or search it. Without needing a server.

TiddlyWiki is published under an OpenSourceLincense and maintained by a busy Community of independent developers.

SocialtextWalkthrough

Wed, 18 Apr 2007 18:16:00 GMT

This walk-through shows you how to connect to a Socialtext wiki server and choose some pages to download, and then to synchronise subsequent changes between TiddlyWiki and the server

Socialtext have kindly set up a sandbox wiki for TiddlyWiki users on their servers. You'll need to register for the wiki in order to fully complete this walk-through

Go to http://www.socialtext.net/TiddlySandbox
Click on the 'register' link at the upper right
Give your email address and choose a password as prompted
(Socialtext won't spam you)

If necessary, DownloadSoftware and open it in your browser
If the black backstage are isn't visible along the top of the screen, click on the 'backstage' button at the top right
Choose 'import' from the backstage area
In the task wizard that drops down, choose the predefined server 'SocialtextDotNet'
Click the 'open' button
When prompted for the workspace, leave the default of 'TiddlySandbox' and click the 'open' button
After a pause, you should then see a list of the available tiddlers. Select the checkboxes by two or three and then click the 'import' button
The tiddlers you have selected will be listed, first as italicised links to missing tiddlers, and then as bold links as the tiddlers are loaded in the background. Click on the links to open the tiddlers you selected
Click on the grey bars to either side of the backstage drop-down to close it
You should now be able to browse the pages that you imported
Note that if you click on a link to an article that has not been downloaded, it will be automatically retrieved from the server
Edit one of the newly imported tiddlers and click 'done' to save changes'
Choose 'sync' from the backstage area
You should see a table showing the tiddlers that you've imported and their synchronisation status. It takes a few seconds to check in with the server to fully update the table. The tiddler you modified should be flagged as 'Changed while unplugged'
Select the checkbox by the tiddler you modified (if necessary) and click the 'sync' button
After synchronisation the status of the tiddler should have changed to 'Updated on server'
Click on 'view' link for that tiddler and verify that the page has been modified on the server
Edit the page directly from Socialtext (using the bright big 'edit' button at the upper left)
Return to TiddlyWiki and sync again. You should be prompted to download the changes from the server

Note that this beta doesn't quite do the right thing when both the client and server versions of a tiddler have been changed. Sadly there's no magic bullet in that situation.
