TUAW's Daily Mac App: Diarie
Have you ever wished you could get that private dear-diary experience in a digital form? I'm not talking about the kinds of things you share with the world on a blog or the schedules you keep in iCal, but the old-fashioned diary into which you poured your life experiences?
Diarie attempts to capture that traditional analog experience on your Mac. It gives you the appearance of a binder with diary entries on one side and an index on the other. You can embed images, title your entries under a date and even password protect it so that only you have access to it -- perfect for those who use a shared computer. The typeface and text size are customizable, but that's about it. A simple, straightforward diary.
While the daily diary has gone somewhat out of fashion, if you're looking to keep your memoirs somewhere, the US$1.99 Diarie is a well-crafted, if slightly limited offering that's well worth considering.

MacJournal is still far better IMO.

Too bad, as Diarie seems to be just what I want.
