My weblog is most useful, I’ve found, at reminding me when I did something. (I have a good memory except for important things like dates and figures.) I was glancing at my time card this afternoon, wondering why I only worked six hours on March 1. It took a quick trip to my archives to remind me that that’s when they came to fix my cable modem. It’s sort of like last year, when I was doing my taxes and needed to consult my weblog to remember when I’d moved across town into a new township. These little notes don’t serve a lot of purpose while I’m writing them, but they can be invaluable when I’m trying to remember the details of my life.
