Personal Diary now handled by….

without comments

With swapping this Blog out to pure SysAdmin goodness I’ve been on the hunt for a decent personal journal solution.

I’m trying out a new App called ‘Day One’ which has Mac and iPhone support.

The key feature I love is that it uses Dropbox to sync.  So you’re always up to date and have online copies of your memories.  I had a quick poke in the database and it looks like the database it keeps are simple flat file XML.

<dict> <key>Creation Date</key>
<date>2011-03-11T00:48:07Z</date> <key>Entry Text</key>
<string>The 11th of March and I’m going to attempt to try and journal….</string>

The plainer the text the better the application in my opinion.  Especially when it comes to things like Journals and information you want to keep longer then a year.

I hope the author will include picture support in future.
