I'm really curious as to how anyone has found my diary entries. In my brief experience, the only way to view them is a RSS feed for the entire OSM world...in everyone's native language. How do you find interesting entries?

Now and then I click the "User Diaries" tab at the top of the OSM homepage to see if there are any interesting entries.

See that “English” link at the bottom of your post? That at least filters out all the other languages.

Many of the diary entries come up in Google search results too, so if someone is looking for certain things that have been written about on here, they should be able to find it that way.
(e.g. "www.openstreetmap.org/user/Dion%20Dock/diary/7440 - 4 hours ago")

also there is blogs.openstreetmap.org which is basically "User diaries" aggregated together with some blogs of openstreetmap enthusiasts, companys that are active in the OSM environment. It is a so-called "planet" feed aggregator, so it's also worthy to have a look...

I'm the same as JeffB. If someone writes a post in German, then I'll also see how well I go at translating it (not very). If they post in German and English then I study it for a bit :)

http://blogs.openstreetmap.org/ is where I find them out (I'm the maintainer). I use Google Reader which auto translates them all to English.
