This works in Chrome.
Pull up the Echo This window,
Right click on the textbox, hit "Inspect element"
You will see some code. The highlighted line will have a part that says Value="stuff here"
Right click on that stuff, and click edit attribute. Change it to what you want Echoed.
Click out of the box, and click "Echo this to your journal"

So this will let you echo your own content to your Journal? interesting. May be illegal, but I can see it working.

No, you used to be able to change the title freely. I'm not sure why it was changed -- I always assumed it was a bug. The title field still looks like an input box.

This workaround only lets you change the title as is the intent. The main text is display only and not input. I am not worried about utilizing the functionality as it seems to be used.

Sorry about this, folks. We keep meaning to fix it, but we may hold on for the journal rework.

Alexis, can you give us any hints as to what the journal rework might entail? I'd really like to have a good way to see what I've already done (including the text next to the "Go" button), especially now that my old method of copy and pasting interesting bits to a text file has become extremely cumbersome.
