Since you don't tag your entries, can I ask how you search them? Usually when I want to find something in your journal, I remember more or less when the discussion happened, and then I just go through the month's entries until I hit the right one. Is that what you do (application of brute force), or do you have another method?
I get comment notifications; they contain the text of the original post or comment; they get downloaded to my e-mail, which is then searchable. It isn't a flawless system, since it requires that someone respond to whatever I said in order for me to be able to find it again, but it's worked for the last five years. The idea of going back and tagging all of my entries with classifications or names or dates just seems both daunting and superfluous at this point.
