Postsecret

A few month's ago, I discovered a blog called Postsecret when it was featured on a news program. As a community art project, a man gave blank postcards to random strangers, told them to decorate them, write an anonymous secret on them, then mail them to a specified address. He got a lot back and then made a art exhibit out of them. Since then, he has received thousands of more postcards. He started a blog where he posts the most interesting of them each week. Some are humorous, some sad, some extremely disturbing. This is one example:Beware, if you plan to visit this site, it contains some postcards with foul language and an occasional crude picture and/or idea. It seems like a cathartic process and I have been toying with the idea of sending in a postcard of my own. The website is www.postsecret.blogspot.com
