Journal Journal: Is a journal something like a blog ???

Yes, it looks like a blog.
A lot of people I know have a blog. Maybe it could be a good idea if I started one.
At least, if I die this night, there will still be some memories from me on earth.

Hmm, does some people use their slashdot journal as a blog ?
Do you think it is a good idea ?
