TiddlyWiki producted the best demonstration of a Getting Things Done methodology (organize things to be actionable, display things under a given context, organize things by blockers) I've ever seen. http://mgsd.tiddlyspot.com/demo3.html This provides so many more features & organization than what a traditional Todo app provides.

Instead of saving to local, there's a PHP script that lets you save your edits to a file on a server. http://tiddlywiki.com/static/Saving%2520on%2520a%2520PHP%252...

I used TW as a research notebook for a while. The tagging + search worked pretty nicely for organization and the plugins for Latex were handy for adding math.

Been using TiddlyWiki, first Class, now TW5, for over a decade. I keep my work and home project notebooks in them. Invaluable for going back and recalling what worked and what didn't work - or helping colleagues who stumble on the same problems I solved a while ago. I migrated to the node.js 'hosted' version a few months back and that has motivated me to start integrating these notebooks more. TiddlyWiki are just programable enough to satisfy the need or occasional yak shaving urge.

It's not globally editable, it saves your changes locally.

Sorry about that. Someone seems to have put it on GitHub with some fixes:
