Journals

The Gorse Fox has many journals and diaries stretching back over the years. Most of these have been transcribed onto the computer. The question that continually nags at GF is "what is the best way to view/review these?"

The obvious answer is a "blog". After all, that's all that a blog is, isn't it - a time-series of journal entries about events or topics. However, diaries and journals are often more sensitive than the traditional hosted blog so the Gorse Fox has spent an interesting hour or two installing a private Apache web-server and a Wordpress blog on his computer. This has been an interesting exercise... but the real effort will arise when he starts moving the thousands of transcribed entries!
