Tinderbox is a personal content management system and personal knowledge base.
It is a tool for storing, arranging, exploring, and publishing data.[1]
Developer
Tinderbox was developed for Mac OS and Mac OS X by Mark Bernstein,[2] Chief Engineer of Eastgate Systems.[3][4]
Features
Its functions include storing and organizing notes, plans, and ideas, and sharing ideas through blogs.[5] Novelist Giles Foden describes its hypertextual features as useful for pattern-making when planning a novel, as well as for organising research notes.[6]
It also offers functionality similar to that of outliner and spatial hypertext/mind mapping tools, in addition to knowledge management, database and agent (persistent search) tools.
Tinderbox is used for a wide variety of tasks:
- As a personal web publishing system, with good support for blog creation and management [7]
- Personal information management [8]
- Outlining and mind mapping[9]
- Concept mapping
- Note-taking[10]
- Plot and story construction and writing[11]
- Creating hypertexts
