In games I've been in, a number had a separate forum thread specifically for player-made notes - you can do something similar! Admittedly I rarely see it used, but it's the thought that counts. Some people also add a notes section on their character sheet, which is probably closer to a journal.
The Character Sheets on Tavern Keeper were divided into four Tabs.
1. Biography: Which included Background, Appearance and Personality.
2. Stats: Which was where you recorded you characters profile, Skills, Trappings and inventory
3. Journal: Where the player could create Journal Entries to record various pieces of information such as Objective, Clues, NPCs etc.
4. Notes: A page for recording notes divided into Player Notes and GM Notes. The GM Notes being private and not visible to the player.
Each Journal Entry had a heading and a body of free text. Some player used these to create Milo Diagrams for their investigations or research.
I'm sure there is way of replicating this functionality somehow on GP, it's just a case of deciding on the best solution.
I don't think one can create 'Tabs' in a Custom Character Sheet, but perhaps something like an Abilities Tag, which naturally provides headings for each Journal Entry, might work.
