Hi All,

We've just added TiddlyWiki hosting to LimeBits, a community for
sharing open-source websites. The TiddlyWiki community hums with
creativity and collaboration, so we're excited to see what it can do
with instant copying, flexible permissions, and the ability to mix
TiddlyWiki with other web pages and apps.

Put your TiddlyWiki online with one click:
Go to http://tiddlywiki.limebits.com/

What you get
* Host it free. You get a personal URL and workspace with plenty of
storage. Put multiple TiddlyWikis, images, docs and other sites in
your workspace. Add custom domain names if you like.
* Share it the way you want. Keep your TiddlyWiki private, let
everyone see it, copy it, or contribute. All signin is handled
securely over https.
* Edit it like you're on the desktop. Access all files and archives.
Mount your workspace or use our online development tools.
* Move it anytime. Use it online or off with no modifications.

What's LimeBits?
LimeBits is a collaboration platform where everyone benefits from the
contributions of everyone else - designer or coder, amateur or pro.
* Pick from the growing pool of sites: wikis, blogs, party invites,
and more at http://limebits.com/
* Mix and modify
* Share back with the community

Try it
LimeBits is alpha so it's changing fast. There's a team listening to
public input.
* Report bugs, request features, make suggestions of any kind
* Put up your favorite TiddlyWiki flavor and it will be featured in
LimeBits

Cheers,
Paritosh Shah from the LimeBits community,

Hi Paritosh,

What are the benefits of this service over tiddlyspot?

Hi Alex,

We're certainly not trying to compete with TiddlySpot (which offers a
wonderful service) and we don't profess to know all it's features. The
key difference is that LimeBits is for making and sharing all sorts of
websites. You can put as many TiddlyWikis as you want under a single
account. Host images, JavaScript apps, and other webpages alongside
your wiki. And once you make something, it's shared with everyone.
They can copy and view it with one click! (unless, of course, you make
your work private)

You might also be interested in more features we offer, including
custom domain names and the option to let everyone edit your wiki
(individual and group permissions are on the way).

First and foremost, we're interested in hearing what you want! So
please play around.

Thanks,
Paritosh

Thanks for reporting the problem. Note that you do get the complete
file ( even though it has a .part extension ), but it does not have
the correct filename.

Hi Alex,

You can also copy TiddlyWiki (or anything other files) in and out of
your LimeBits workspace by mounting it directly from your desktop and
treating it like just another folder.

See http://bits.limebits.com/help/mounting.html

Hope that helps.

Best,
Ted

Hello,

Is LimeBits anything to do with LimeWire? I see you have their logo.

Fresh,

Limewire
Its the same umbrella Lime Group [1]
They have hedge fund and medical stuff going on as well.
I'm not sure how to think about this company.

The founder is on wikipedia [2]

"Managing Director Mark Gorton worked in the proprietary trading
department of Credit Suisse First Boston. Mark traded there for 4 1/2
years and built sophisticated tools used to analyze the markets. In
the spring of 1998, he left Credit Suisse First Boston to set up Tower
Research Capital LLC. Mr. Gorton's professional and educational
background provides an unusual combination of math skills and
financial knowledge to create and orchestrate the trading strategies
utilized at Tower. "[3]

Not short of a bob or two (note for non-native english speakers this
means "he appears to have adequate amounts of money") ? Perhaps Eric
can develop a plugin for TW enable all of us to benefit from the tools
'used to analyze the markets' that he develops? Mans, you could
translate into Danish? Morris, your maths plugin might be useful?

I like the webDav thing though.
