Let's brainstorm a name for the next version of TiddlyWiki

I love a guessing competition and find brainstorming more effective as a personal event one later “socialises”. I have done a little, but will share more later, and I am not totally in favor of a name change.

Perhaps rather than abandon tiddlyWiki, which has serious good google juice, I have always said start with a good compound like “TiddlyWiki Platform” and a phrase, like but not limited to “a non-linear personal web notebook”.

However along the line of what jeremy said;

What if we did a Fork of tiddlywiki with another name, with “built on tiddlywiki” in the “fine print”.
A fork could be done to introduce some of the ideas in TWX that have being raised, but careful design could permit one to leverage tiddlywiki under the covers. Perhaps a fork could be as simple as a new “default layout” with a somewhat more fashionable and functional look, even if not backward comparable because of some key “reinventions” the differences could be in a ways where the vast majority of wikitext and widgets were there just different ways to customise and hack core features would be different and come with comparative doco.

I must admit, whilst I love the Wiki concept tiddlywiki is more even than a smartwiki today.

  • “More than a wiki platform”
  • “Personal Wiki App platform”
  • “Personal App platform” PAP
  • “Personal or Public App Platform” PPAP
  • Or rather IPA - “Infinite Progressive App” or “InfiniteApp”

I like fractals, perhaps there lies opportunities?

  • Fractal App

I like quine as long as its non-trivial like most

  • NTQ - “Non-trivial Quine”
  • NTQAP - “Non-trivial Quine app platform”
  • Non-linear platform - NLP
  • nonlinearities / nonlinearity

TW can be a App/website/document/wiki/platform/server

  • intelligent/smart document platform IDP
  • intelligent Document application Platform iDAP (taken?)

an aside

What is intelligent document processing?


Image result for intelligent Document application Platform

Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) converts unstructured data. Both unstructured and semi-structured data can be converted into structured, usable information, providing end-to-end automation to document-centric business processes.


Imagination is unlimited, making a decision much harder.
