> With TextExpander’s potential in mind, the app becomes a natural fit for creating consistency, structure, and organization inside Day One. I have a plethora of quick Day One-specific snippets to help track fitness, time, reviews, and other personal bits of information I’ll want to draw on again in the future.

There seems to be a bit of a theme here today, eh? If you use Day One like I do, using TextExpander to help you journal is a no brainer. I've found that I don't do *amazing* things every day that make me want to write about them, but some of these snippets help me write things I'll then be able to look back on fondly.
