Look what I came across (and, Jen, maybe this will sway you to like my 'journal' despite memories of those faux-leather bound unicorn days): "<i>Although <b>journal</b> is sometimes used as a synonym for "magazine," in academic use, a journal refers to a serious, scholarly publication, most often peer-reviewed.</i>" Haha, only joking.

It works for you, seems like. Maybe it's a generation gap - do handwritten journals seem like distant artifacts to you young'uns? That'd be sad. Greg, somehow I think that none of those alternatives will prove to be quite right for Anna. (Or me for that matter.) I'm actually genuinely curious to see what alternative they come up with. Of course now blogs are evolving and looking less and less... bloglike. So maybe they won't have to call it anything. It's just "online content". (Gag! Content is a problematic word too...)
