TiddlyWiki + TiddlySnip + TiddlySpot as a Google Notebook Alternative

with 2 comments

Last January, Google announced that they will stop supporting Google Notebooks.  FInd out more in their official blog.

Although they promised to keep the existing notes intact, I though that it was a good opportunity for me to look for alternatives.

Come TiddlyWiki.  TiddlyWiki is a single-file, self-contained wiki for managing micro-content, written in JavaScript.  And there are lots of compelling reasons to use it.  Some of which are:

  • It’s a single file – meaning it’s portable, you can easily save it in your USB drive or upload it somewhere
  • It’s self-contained – The single file that is a TiddlyWiki contains not only all of your data, but all the machinery to edit and manipulate it
  • It’s a wiki – it allows collaboration
  • It manages micro-content – so it’s really well fitted for small notes not like other wikis which I think are more page-oriented
