From Paul Mayne at the Day One blog:
Today, I’m thrilled to announce that Day One is being acquired by Automattic Inc. This is incredibly exciting news. For the past 10 years since I started Day One, I’ve worked to not only create the best digital journaling experience in the world, but one that will last. By joining Automattic, I’m now more confident than ever that the preservation and longevity of Day One is sure. This acquisition will provide Day One access to the same technological, financial, and security benefits that WordPress.com, Tumblr, and other Automattic entities enjoy.
Exciting news for users of the best journaling app on Apple platforms. I’ve tried various types of paper journals of the past couple years, but nothing has stuck as well as writing in Day One on my Mac, iPhone, or iPad. Maybe the news that makes me most excited is a WordPress.com integration. I’d love to have my entire back catalog of posts like these stored in Day One, and it looks like I might finally be able to do so.
