A handy pointer

It has been suggested by a friend that I post a pointer to a useful utility: HideJournal is a free, Java-based utility that allows you to convert every public entry in your journal to Friends Only with one command. This is useful if you suddenly realize you’ve said a lot more in your journal than you’d meant to, you don’t want your family to discover your secret fetish for quivering monkeypants, or whatever. You can find more info in this discussion, and I can post more user-friendly instructions (courtesy of a certain wolph) if needed.

    My parents finding my LiveJournal is like, uh, like.. umm. Okay, I dunno what it’s like, but it’s very unlikely. Despite their need to own a good computer, they have no idea how to even use it.
    The internet? Sure. I think my Mom goes to visit the Home Shopping Channel’s website. I think my Dad simply goes to look at news. And no one else in my family even cares about email or whatever.
    Heh, I think I’m adopted. I’m sure of it.
