Welcome to this Treasure Chest of Free Stuff.

For many of the students I work with, journal-writing is an important aspect of each school day. Many of those same students do a better job of working on a computer than with pencil and paper. Today’s feature, listed on the productivity page, offers the tools to keep a journal on the computer–conveniently and ever so neatly.

Advanced Diary (downloadable program) Here is a free standalone program that provides the tools you need to keep a journal on your computer. Actually, this software supports multiple diaries, and allows multiple entries for the same day. In Advanced Diary, you have several easy ways to find items that have been entered previously. There are also convenient formatting tools so that you can make your journal entries look the way you want them to. You can easily add pictures and insert html links. For more information, and to download the program, go to http://www.csoftlab.com/Diary.html.

This program runs in Windows only.
