Thanks Foolness, very interesting.
For my work however, Yammer is difficult to replace by desktop programs like the ones suggested; the reason being that one of its most useful tools is the portable version for Android, which I can use from almost everywhere.

Well, somebody would eventually make a product for this, no?
From the website:
“Every day we?ll email you to ask, ?What?d you get done today?? Just reply to our email to make an entry.
Inch by inch, anything?s a cinch.
We?ll keep a calendar for you of what you got done. Look to your streak from yesterday to motivate you today.”

Looking at your requirement, the Microsoft 2010 Project Management software can be a real benefit for you. It would keep track of your journal entries, categorize and even cross-check the progress. Its features make it a comprehensive task management software you can go for.
Visit http://www.microsoft.com/project/en/us/default.aspx for more information.

Alexander, I haven’t seen a dedicated Intensive Journal software app, though am sure it is probably out there someplace - :)
However, the different dividers one finds in the hard copy Intensive Journal can be top level headings in programs such as MyInfo, UltraRecall, Noteliner, or The Journal 5. All of these programs allow for an outline approach, and have tagging.
