I went to hear "Someguy" speak at an AIGA event and after hearing about this amazing project, I had to check out the book. I feel like it is best if you have some background knowledge about the project because the book doesn't really give an explanation. It is really cool that he sent 1000 journals out into the world to be passed around and added too. There were some touching entries and some that I didn't personally enjoy, but it isn't about what you like. It is about what the person sharing wanted to share; it is about an experiment.
Some of the journals are still out there in the world. Check out this site to follow them: http://www.1000journals.com/
Also, the journals were such a hit that "Someguy" opened up another site where users can begin their own journals to pass around and some have themes. Follow them here: http://1001journals.com/
