Backing Up Journals

This is not a regular journal entry but I thought it would be of great interest to many of you.  I found links on Coy's journal.  Apparently some AOL members have had their journals deleted recently due to "errors" on the part of AOL.

Many of you have been writing for a long time and put on photographs of family, stories of your children growing up  and other things that mean a great deal to you and you would probably be very upset, to say the least, if you suddenly found your journal deleted.

There is a way to back up your journal so that it is not lost forever.

Instructions can be found at:-

Backing Up Journal Files

I hope this is useful to you.

Thanks for that, Jeannette - wish I'd discovered it before I deleted my old journal. I wanted to save it and all the comments somehow, but couldn't find a simple way to do that. So I just deleted it in the end.

Thank you Jeannette for the link. I had already had a blog on there but had forgotten all about until you jogged my memory. :)  Good idea about backing our journals up. Thanks for all the help.
