What is it?

Journal comes with two choices for privacy - Public or Private.

  • The Public Option opens the Journal up to anyone on the internet to view and add comments. They cannot, however, add media, blog entries or calendar events.
  • The Private Option allows you to give permission to the viewers you choose. You also choose whether or not these viewers are allowed to contribute to your Journal or just view it. Contributors can add calendar events, media, links, and blog entries.
