Response to "Post Secret"

This site reminds me of the song video by the group All American Rejects called "Dirty Little Secret" where they have random people holding their various secrets, also written on postcards, for the world to see. I wonder if this Post Secret site was inspired by the All American Rejects video or vice-versa. With that being said, I did like the website. It takes a certain amount of courage to be able to post your secrets for the wide web to see. Some of those secrets are embarrassing to admit. Like the woman who has to shave her face or the guy who has boobs. Some deal with issues of guilt or loneliness. Some are very sad to read.....

  1. You are right it must take a whole lot of courage to post your secrets on the web, but I guess it's not that bad when noone really knows who you are. Some of them were embarassing and others were sad, it was cool to read them though. I didn't find much of them that had anything to do with me or how I felt but it was interesting to read them.

  2. I'm not familiar with the song you mention, but now I'm curious... I, too, felt the sadness in some of them, but I think somehow sharing them, even anonymously is freeing.
