...... but why do I see people's own journals on their f-lists? There is presumably some kind of benefit but what it it?

I do it so I can read my own entries without going to my journal (which sounds ridiculously lazy, I know,) but it reminds me to reply to comments left to whichever entry was latest. Doesn't always work, but it helps.

I've seen other people say that they usually post right after they go through their flist and right before they go to bed/go to work/etc., so they use their own entries as a bookmark of sorts, so they know where they left off on their flist next time they scroll through it.
