Re: Why tikiwiki isn't well known
Hi,
Since no one else has responded, I thought I would, even though I'm not a "real" Tiki developer. (Yet.)
Your suggestions for contact management and calendar are interesting. However, I think this would be useful primarily if there was synchronizing software with PDAs. Perhaps PilotManager (http://pilotmanager.sourceforge.net/) could serve as a starting point.

I wouldn't personally use this — I like a separate mail client — but others might, I suppose.

There is a calculator module available already, I believe.

It could have the look of the first page of a news agency portal, but categorized! That was when I visit this page I can see concisely news information from 5-6 sites I am interested without visiting them and searching for new articles!
This is existing functionality.
