TiddlyWiki Screencast: Multi-User Forum in 15 Minutes from Michael Mahemoff on Vimeo.
This screencast is how I finished up the 12Days project, as it captures a lot about what I have come to appreciate in TiddlyWiki. It shows how you can do some simple hacking in the browser, in a single-page web app, reusing and configuring [...]
There have been a dizzying array of Tiddly* products spun off recently. I’m talking merely about the core infrastructure stuff rather than applications like TiddlyPocketBook. We’re starting to get some convergence within the team, as we’re working on a high-level product called TiddlySpace. It’s basically the manifestation of earlier discussion too.the ideas we were discussing [...]
TiddlyWiki MU is what I’m calling – in the absence of an official name – an effort within Osmosoft to pull together a bunch of work into something that will be very useful in the enterprise and beyond. You could also call it “tiddlywiki as a service” or “multi-room tiddlywiki”. Similar to Wikia or WordPress [...]

We are working on a design that will keep TiddlyDocs as generic as possible. The core TiddlyDocs product will have a concept of “rooms”. This is the same kind of room you see in online forums or chat sites, where everyone inside the room contributes and sees content inside the room they’re in, and can’t [...]

I’ve begun working on the server-side of TiddlyWeb a bit, mostly to make stuff degrade gracefully as I begin to build a Trails facility into Scrumptious. In TiddlyWeb, an app-specific plugin is how you build an app on the server-side (or you can use a completely separate web framework like Django or Rails, making server-to-server [...]

TiddlyWeb-JQuery Comments Plugin – Screencast @ Vimeo
I’ve extracted from Scrumptious a nested comments plugin you can integrate into any POJA (plain ol’ Javascript app). You can find it here in the repo: TiddlyWeb-JQuery Comments Plugin.
As the README explains, usage is a one-liner once you’ve set it up. Just do $(selector).comments(“topic”). The topic is an identifier [...]
Osmosoft, Hackathons
At Osmosoft, we have been engaging in a one-day hackathon about every month or so. There are several benefits:
It helps us prove our tech in a range of application contexts. It helps improve and demonstrate our capabilities for reuse. Reuse can be as simple as slapping a Javascript file with inline comments on a server [...]
We had a session a little while ago where Chris Dent walked through the lifecycle of a Tiddlyweb call, from incoming request to outgoing response.
Each step is a WSGI middleware object. The exact sequence is of course configurable, by manipulating config['server_response_filters'].
Some Terminology
First, some relevant terminology.
Serializer – converts from a tiddler to some format (externalisation), some [...]
Just a pointer to a TiddlyGuv article I’ve put up on FossBazaar. TiddlyGuv is an early-stage open-source governance system.
Scrumptious Update: Open ID Support, UI Enhancements
June 17th, 2009 · No Comments · SoftwareDev
I’ve released a new version of Scrumptious. Main change is it now supports Open ID. You can click a “login” link to comment by Open ID. It’s optional by default, though a Scrumptious site operator could easily make it mandatory for read, write, or both by just changing a couple of words in the “policy” [...]
