LISP in your notes? That's cool. For my note taking I use the great tiddlywiki. A lot of features seem to overlap with the tiddlywiki. What seems nicer is the syntax, which is cool. As a tiddlywiki user, what's the advantage of this note taking app over that one?

I'm not sure, just seeing tiddlywiki for the first time now. Two of the main goals of /tap are having your notes meet you where you are: sms, email, API and introducing elements that allow you to consolidate other applications into tap: beans, formulas, events etc.


I see you are the creator of /tap? Great! I think the multi modal goal is definitely cool and could be really useful. For tiddlywiki, I have to host my own server and only access to it is via a browser. While I have access everywhere this way, it's sometimes slow on mobile phones.

FYI, I signed up but login doesn't seem to work for me. Does nothing. I had to verify my email but got a 'oops try again' message with the verify link. Maybe has something to do with not being able to login.


Email me at hello [at] tatatap.com and I will sort it out for you.


This is a hosted service so you can just access it and read/write your data from anywhere. With tiddlywiki you need to go through a lot of machinations or even run your own server to access it anywhere.


Yes, it being hosted is definitely nice. It's not a big deal for people like me that know how to host software but I can see that being a huge plus for folks who can't/don't want to manage their own server.
