What ever happened to journal writing?

I've been keeping a journal for years now. Started my last year in highschool and went on a off for a few years until my mid to late 20's and have been writing strong ever since.

I'm not sure why I do it. People have blogs (like this) or Facebook (like everyone else in the world) where they post things on their day to day life. Sure you can make journal entries more personal than something online but the other day I got a new journal to start writing in and wondered "Do people even do this anymore?"

Gave me something to ponder on that day and now I'm passing it on to you!
