I've been doing something like this with shellscripts for a long time. The shellscript opens up vim. It concats the file to one on the disk, adding a timestamp, and posts the entry to my gmail account. A gmail filter labels and archives the mail. One can also create a private livejournal account and post to it using a command-line program such as ljcharm.py. You can create a private blogspot blog and post to it from gmail itself. You can set a daily reminder for 8 pm in google calendar if you so wish.
