SallyKitt "Action is the antidote to despair" - Joan Baez
So now I am cutting and pasting into a Word document. It’s taking a few hours, but I’ll be glad I did it!
How I did it: I have an online journal at LiveJournal, where there are many tools developed by users to back up your journals. Some will back up only entries, but others will include comments and tags and even let you export your journal to another journaling site. I chose a tool, downloaded it, and followed the instructions to download all my entries and comments to my computer.
Lessons & tips: * Not all tools will work on all operating systems, but there is at least one tool for each operating system.
* Do it! You never know if something is going to happen. Some of you have years of your life contained in an online journal.

SallyKitt "Action is the antidote to despair" - Joan Baez
So now I am cutting and pasting into a Word document. It’s taking a few hours, but I’ll be glad I did it!
after TypePad crashed last year, I panicked.
Now I back up, at least semi-regularly.
This is reminding me to make it a daily calendar event.
If you have access to do this for your blog, I would recommend using a cron script to automate this.
