Piggydb V3.7 released

This release adds two features: Fragment Bookmark and Related Tags.

A fragment can be bookmarked by using the special "bookmark" tag; a (star icon) button has been added to the top-right corner of each fragment for convenience.

Bookmarked fragments are shown in the navigation sidebar.



"Related Tags" are all additional tags which classify a displayed (searched) fragment. A Related Tags view has been added to the sidebars of the Tag and Filter pages.

When you click on the "Plus" button next to a related tag, the selected fragments are filtered with the new set of tags, allowing you to "drill down" to pinpoint the required fragment(s).

Piggydb V3.4 released

This release adds support for two special tags: "pre" and "code".

If a knowledge fragment is tagged with "pre", it will be displayed "as is" and no further formatting will be applied to it (similar to HTML <pre>..</pre> mark-up).



The "code" tag adds syntax highlighting using google-code-prettify.



You can optionally specify the language with a "lang-<language name>" tag, for more detail, see the google-code-prettify document.



If you create the tag relation "pre -> code" beforehand, you will only need to classify a fragment as "code" to enable syntax highlighting of its content.

I'm pleased to announce the release of Piggydb V3.0.

This is a major update with two important features: File Fragment and Fragment Embedding.

File Fragment enables you to attach any file as a knowledge fragment, so you can manage your files in exactly the same way as text fragments.





Fragment Embedding enables you to embed the content of a fragment inside another; there is no limit to the number of levels of nesting, allowing you to create more complex, rich fragments.

Why did I make Piggydb?

There are already many web services or applications that support tagging or other information organizing mechanism such as delicious, Wikipedia, Youtube and so on.

So why did I make Piggydb?

The above services known as Web2.0 or social web applications, folksonomies whatever they are called enable you to connect to other people who have the same interest with you, and discover new information about it. It's a fantastic enviroment thanks to the internet.

In a Web2.0-oriented enviroment, mostly the information has already been organized when you arrive at a service. Although it's so convenient and useful, I think it has a certain kind of risk that you are so influenced by the majority that it prevents you from creating your own view or idea, moreover ability to produce those things.

So I want to put more focus on the importance of organizing information all by oneself from scratch. In other words, the process of organizing information is more important than organized information itself.

The plan until the release of V3.0

I have implemented two of important features to organize your knowledge: Tagging and Relationship. What's the next step?

The current version of Piggydb is lacking in features that enable you to view your knowledge as a whole. For example, you cannot view a whole tag tree in one page. I'm going to add those kind of features to Piggydb until the release of V3.0. And then V3.0, it's going to come with the feature "upload and store image files".

Piggydb V2.0 is now available!

I'm pleased to announce the release of Piggydb V2.0. It comes with Fragment Relationship, with which you can use Piggydb as an outliner to write a document or whatever you like.

Definitely check it out!

The plan for version 2.0

The main feature of V2.0 is Fragment Relationship, which enables you to relate between fragments to create a fragment graph or hierarchy. This is one of most important features in Piggydb's roadmap. Maybe a future version will enable you to tag a relation so that you can create kind of an ontology like structure.



Hopefully, Piggydb V2.0 will be released in this September.
