Read: Here We Are by Graham Swift
★★★★★ Really engaging novella. I both wanted to get to the end and find out what happens and keep having more to read.

Though a detective might cheer me up, but too may big guns and bangs.

I don’t think it is down to the pupils. I think that depends on their teachers & schools. If it is part of learning in school they will use it for that. And for staff who are not confident with digital it give at least some assurances & help.
Glow services goes through rigorous data protection. There are plenty of digital enthusiasts who could can find and incorporate “better” tools or ones that meet the needs of their particular classrooms. That might lack a little on the safety front and many be difficult to sustain. Having a national solution avoids some of those problems.

Chris Aldrich (boffosocko.com)The fact that an empty TiddlyWiki file is named index.html gave me my answer: set up a GitHub Pages-based website and simply connect it to my domain! However, as simple as this pathway may seem to some, I thought I’d briefly document the process I took so others can do the same for themselves.
Hi Chris,
This worked very well for me, I already had some git hub pages so just added another directory https://git.johnj.info/tiddly/
Took a few goes to get the settings to stick but I got there. I also found if I had two browsers open saving failed. Get the odd save error, but it seems to sort itself out in the end.
Not sure what I am going to do with this as I’ve a couple of other Tiddlywikis, but it is fun to play with.
