Why do this? The effort involved with keeping a regular journal can be daunting for some people, such as Gretchen, when you really just want to capture what was going on in your life at that time. Short and sweet and to the point, you are forced to only write the most important things and how you actually felt over the entire day. There’s an obvious interest in this sort of journaling with popularity of Twitter and Jaiku. Maybe try updating these only once a day. Keeping a personal book does have more charm and, probably, longevity. Why I started keeping a daily “one-sentence journal” (ok, a not-quite daily journal). – [HappinessProject]
