RippleRap is an adaptation of TiddlyWiki for use as a collaboration tool at conferences.

It is comprised of several TiddlyWiki plugins and has some additional styling.

[edit] Options for Sharing Feeds

  1. Storage of notes:
    1. central server, such as WebDAV on ripplerap.com
    2. distributed, on each user's own Google Pages, Tumbler, WebDAV (.mac, etc)
  2. Discovery of notes:
    1. central feeds as files in a single server directory on ripplerap.com
    2. in a registry, list of feeds available as OPML, XOXO etc
    3. URI of each feed added by hand into a tiddler, (similar to lifestream config)
  3. Aggregation of notes:
    1. server based aggregator (PHP or planet run from cron on ripplerap.com)
    2. generic feed aggregator service (Yahoo! Pipes, Google Reader, etc)
    3. distributed, each RippleRap grabs all the feeds directly


[edit] Architecture and Components

RippleRap is currently undergoing an architectural redesign in order to make use of more generic robust TiddlyWiki plugins.

The proposed TiddlyWiki plugins for RippleRap are:


[edit] Feed Management

Components concerned with synchronising feeds to provide note sharing functionality.

[edit] Agenda Management

Components concerned with providing a structured agenda.

[edit] Notes Management

Components concerned with providing the UI for creating and managing notes.


[edit] Theme and UI elements

In addition, RippleRap can optionally make use of the following server components in order to support larger events with many users.

[edit] Account Configuration

  • The friendly name displayed against your notes
  • The destination for putting your shared feed
  • The location of your shared feed
  • The location of the feed list (OPML/Tiddler)


[edit] Server Components

  • RippleRap Bakery - Web form to create an edition of RippleRap preconfigured with conference title, URI and "type" (PHP Source)
  • RippleRap note taking (WebDav, Confabb, etc)

[edit] System Setup and Configuration

RippleRap can be used by a single user, a small group of users or a large number of users. The system setup for these scenarios is described below.


[edit] Usage
