Other: Google me I've been using sdw@lig.net since I registered the domain (for free back then!) in 1992. If you've got really good archives, I could dig up my UUCP address (something close to ucbvax!csc!sdw or ucbvax!osu!csc!sdw) or my 13-year CompuServe ID (76244,210) (starting in 1984 or 1985, 300 and a Racal Vadic 1200 baud modem I took home from GE). And I was sdw@aol.com since a little while after I started consulting there for BuddyList in 1995. And I had an account on world.std.com for a while early in their life. And I was an initial Prodigy user.

TiddlyWiki

MPTW TiddlyWiki - Easily create your own local or published Wiki
If you'd like to be able to Wiki-like editing easily, you should try out TiddlyWiki [ 1 ] (MPTW seems to be the newest / best version). It is very interesting because of how it works: it is a "single page application" using Javascript in an HTML page that can save itself after allowing you to edit it. Works best with Firefox, although you can probably use most modern browsers. If you're interested in math/science, there are specific versions [ 2 ] that support equation rendering. And for programming, there is TiddlyProcessing [ 3 ].

Just find the download link to save a copy locally as a .html file. Then copy that to "pages" for each topic (sort of like a document), then open that with your web browser (usually with something like: file:///C:/... or file:///Users/...). Then you'll be able to create mini-pages, link them together, and even link to remote or local images (which have to be at or below the same directory).

You can use it as a mini-knowledge base or document editing system. I wrote the presentations for my AnDevCon presentations [ 4 ] with it, along with a code syntax highlighting plugin and images from Inkscape[ 5 ], a free drawing program that outputs a very standard diagram format. The cool thing is that in addition to allowing easy editing with nothing but a web browser, you can publish it to the web by just putting the file on a web server and browsing to the corresponding URL like http://javaglue.com [ 4 ].

There are some sites that allow you to set up automatic remote publishing as you edit such as TiddlyWeb[ 6 ].

Google Docs has some great uses [ 7 resume example ] for publishing single pages, and there are Wiki sites, free and paid, that give you a nice traditional Wiki like PB Wiki [ 8 ] . TiddlyWiki however is the only system that allows rich Wiki-style documents that supports both local editing and web publishing in a rich way.

A good introduction: http://www.raiden.net/node/192
