Cool, so people post their diary to an email service? Interesting. Why not just post on Facebook? It's about as public as it gets.

I don't think it's supposed to be public. The idea is that you get an email each day asking about what's going on, you reply, and the service tracks your replies in a way that you can retrieve them.

A lot of people would rather keep their diaries private.

Montaigne wouldn't have been Montaigne if he was writing for other people.
