I’m addicted to PostSecret, the site that posts secrets that anonymous people send in on handmade postcards. Though each PostSecret is one person’s innermost fear or worry or — sometimes — joy, taken together they become our collective fears, worries, and sometimes joys. It’s one of those wonderful resources that could not have existed before the Net, and it’s one of the best things that the Net has done, because as alone as we all sometimes feel, particularly when it comes to innermost fears and worries and secrets, PostSecret shows us that we are most definitely not as weird or alone as we think we are.
Do you have a secret you would share with PostSecret? Have you already shared one? I’m not asking you to share your secret here, of course — I’m just wondering whether you think such sharing is helpful, either to the sharer or to readers who only lurk and never share their own.
What do you think?
