Joe the Journalseditor mentioned the number of posts he made on his journal Magic Smoke, and how you can find out how many entries you've made yourself. Quite simple: enter into your browser journals.aol.com/screenname, where you obviously replace screenname with your own screenie - or anyone's screenie. It should return the names of your journals, the date you started them and the number of entries.
I started this journal on 8 October 2004, but if you look back to the first entry, you'll find it's actually 17 November 2004. My Northern Trip started on 11 August 2004, when I travelled north to Scotland. The diary-entries for the period between August and November are contained in a separate blog, Northern Trip - The Start.
The Northern Trip blog started life as an on-line diary. It wasn't until I got involved with J-land in April 2006 that it started to expand. The number of entries was more or less the same as the number of days - but that parallel has disappeared. This entry will make it number 2,599; if you add the preceding blog to it, it will mount up to 2,702.
The diary entries now take a back-seat, and I am even thinking of placing them in a separate blog. I have already copied diary entries up to May 2006 into three Blogger blogs, called Lewis Lines 2004, 2005 and 2006. I find Blogger less than userfriendly - I am not terribly good at HTML, and do not understand the way their blogs are laid out.
Other blogs I keep are the Tropical Cyclones journal which has 445 entries , since I started it on 17 July 2006. The TC blog is linked to this one, in that I relay warnings if land is threatened by a hurricane / typhoon / cyclone (all the same thing).
Don't forget my Recipe Book, which has 10 entries since 28 April 2006.
Apart from these, I have extracted entries on two events into separate journals:
Royal National Mod, which was held in Stornoway in October 2005, and
St Martin's Storm, a violent storm, which battered this town on 11 November 2005. I gave it that name, because it happened on the nameday of St Martin.

ReplyDeleteWell, I am not at all surprised that you've made close to 3,000 entries! And although I don't comment on each and every one, I do read them all!
