YOUR VERY PRIVATE ONLINE DIARY

Maintaining a handwritten diary or personal record was considered a healthy practice before computers came along. We may have lost the ability to put pen to paper, but there’s still some good to be derived from keeping a personal journal – albeit an electronic one. At www.penzu.com, you can create a free, online journal in under a minute. Penzu claims that jotting down the day’s events or your thoughts will lower stress levels, improve your immune functions and help boost your memory. Your journal will be strictly private, saved online, accessible wherever you want it to be and from from multiple kinds of devices. And since it isn’t a physical diary or journal, it can’t get lost. Your account will only be accessible via a username and password – but for extra security, you can also go ahead and secure each entry you make with a password. That way, if you accidentally leave the account signed in, no one will be able to snoop around what you wrote about. The service is free, but adsupported. Which means that you do have to put up with some visible ads when you log in, but they don’t have any annoying banners or blinking ads – just some discreet ones that won’t occupy your mindspace.
