Actually taking up this task only for attaining those side effects. The task would be to write at least one blog a day for one year, even if this means to write back dated entries to accommodate net non-availabilities at times. Bitter pill for you to get side effects at my end :P
Desired side effect is to have my old entries tagged on LJ. Tags were introduced late on LJ. Searching through my older blogs becomes quite difficult whenever I need to refer earlier writings. So the idea would be revisit those older entries and add/edit tags for those.
One entry a day with each entry having links to earlier entries (2004 till 2008) for same date n month.
