Computer Journaling
The computer is the dream answer and the
bane of existance for different types of people. Some folks
would think that journaling on a computer would be something
close to a cardinal sin! However, in this day and age, the computer
does offer something that toting around a journal all the time
can't do. It's often available many hours of the day to us.
There are several great software packages
that capitalize on this availablity and offer many neat bells
and whistles for journaling. It's best to do your research and
check out these program to make sure they are compatible to
your needs. In fact, just a simple word processor can be a great
journal, simple start a file and deposit your writing files
in there by date or topic. Many people with web skills create
online journals, sometimes called BLOGS (a shortening of the
words Web Log) where other people can read and comment on their
thoughts and more. Others create sites more for just sharing
their thoughts in words and graphics. The sky's the limit!
Here are some
thoughts to get you started in Computer Journaling.
Before buying any journaling software, check
their website to see if they have a free demo to try out for
a few weeks. This might save you a lot of money if you find
that computer journaling is not your style.
Consider learning more about Blogs. You might
really get addicted to these online communities of journaling!
Remember to back up your work, OFTEN! Computers
are easily tampered with, and fail. You want your work to be
available through the ages, so take care to protect it with
a back-up routine.
