Looking for post from ~6 months ago about a type of historical diary

Hi

There was a post here about a type of diary that people kept in the 19th century, which was a kind of a mix of daily entries and clippings and notes kind of stuck in at random. People compared it to a blog or bookmarking tool.

Any ideas? I have searched but 'diary' and 'journal' bring up nada.
