> 2. Added "Examples" to the left hand navigation
I'm a bit concerned that the nav menu is getting too cluttered (eight
items is hard on the limit).
I think some items could be rearranged - e.g. RSS as an icon somewhere
in the header, Examples doesn't really belong into the main navigation
IMO, Plugins could be a (prominent) item under Customization.
> 4. Installed Udo Borkowski's search plugin, without modifications
Definitely a good move.
Design-wise, it doesn't really blend in very well at the moment - but
those details can be tweaked at a later stage.
> 5. Tagline changed. [...]
> So, "web notebook" is a recurring theme. I've gone for "the flexible

I guess "flexible web notebook" is okay - but I don't like the definite
article there.
Keep up the good work!

I don't think that "url" quite captures what the feature does. It's
purpose is to capture the current sequence of open tiddlers so that
they can be bookmarked or shared. To me, it's one of TiddlyWiki's key
features that it provides a quick and transparent way to share
specific custom views of microcontent. I think we'll struggle to come
up with a short word or phrase that captures that meaning. I copped
out originally by inventing the word "permaview", hoping that using a
word that isn't laden with extraneous prior meaning would make it
easier to signal that this was a new concept that invited users to
explore and learn so that they could benefit from it. Of course, this
logic rests on there being good ways for users to discover the meaning
and function of features that they don't understand. TiddlyWiki only
uses plain old tooltips for this, but no doubt there are opportunities
to do it better.
Anyhow, how about a new slider labelled "share" that contains text
like "to share a link automatically opens all these tiddlers, click
here and then copy the URL from the browser address bar".

While the term "adaptation" has historical meaning in the TiddlyVerse,
we should consider reclaiming it - see this discussion:
http://www.tiddlywiki.org/wiki/Category_talk:Adaptations
If necessary, this should be discussed in a separate thread though.

So, a question for Eric - how easy would it be to add an option to
deliver the search results into a new, clean <DIV> that's fixed in
place at the top of the story column, with it's own "close" link? It
seems that such a presentation would retain the key advantages of the
current approach, but allow us to keep the overall user experience
more consistent by not blurring the concepts of a list of search
results and a tiddler.

Great visual design from a TW about hearing.

As a lone TW fan in Manchester, I am impressed that MIT people use
TW. I help level my head and ease my mind - convincing me that I am
not a loon following loons.
Are there any Manchester TW people out there?
