== What others say about it?

"In a way, your tool is very fast; it's an exploration hack. I could technically explore all of this without your tool, but you lower the friction for me to rapidly explore different perspectives, angles, or scopes in a rhizome. I wouldn't have the energy to connect all those dots by hand; hence this is a powertool. While I may be dead wrong, I suspect those who are more diligent in their hard-coded tag-based organization practices will not find as much value from your tool as those who have a more freeform and carelessly sprawling approach to structuring their wikis via tags (like mine) because it picks low-hanging fruit. You turn some apparent heaps into stacks. Your tool is a GUI abstraction for rapidly stepping back and forth through doorways in my wiki by automating the construction of complex filter expressions in stages with minimal effort; even someone who doesn't know anything about TW can learn to use your tool. + ... + Your tool is Leet, sir. Thank you for your work, and you've given me a lot to think about." -- https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/xAe_fvhzoCY/-l-mf2CnDgAJ[h0p3]

"What I really like about that is its scope (range) ... it addresses several issues all in one package." -- https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/C_eGviHgLPg/Y2-0Za-3GgAJ[TiddlyTweeter]
