Has anyone here heard of Post Secret?

If not, it is an art project started by a man named Frank Warren. People anonymously write their secrets on a post card and send them to Frank, which he displays on his website and compiles in books.

Has anyone ever sent a Post Secret?


I created on but I have yet to send it in.

They are completely anonymous. It is like letting go of something painful into a mailbox. The world sees it, and no one knows it is you.

It is really an amazing thing.

Try looking at some yourself at youtube or on postsecret.com. You'll get it when you see it.

Yes.

There is one postsecret that read "There is enough evidence on this postcard to convict me."

Nothing was done about it.

there's also a group on live journal called ljsecret thats the same just with the images made and sent in on the computer

some secrets are ace and fun to read, a lot a bit boring though.

It's such an amazing concept. I saw the exhibit when it was in DC and all of the secrets move from scandalous and shocking to playful, amusing.
