@kevinmarks hah, maybe! I could make a series of "then" subpages...

@stephtara I definitely would. A nice example is @maggie's log:

To me, it's part of your online history. It's not very different from keeping your older posts online. It also allows friends to catch up whenever needed, just like they would catch up with your timeline on any given social network, except it's on your blog and you can develop anything as you see fit, provide backlinks to your recent blog posts, etc.
