My sister sent me a link to a blog getting a lot of attention from her college friends: PostSecret. After spending an hour looking at the startling and fascinating content, I’ve concluded that PostSecret is truly an amazing digital art project. The beauty is in its simplicity; a combination of text and image (user-generated content posted to a blog) which evokes a cascade of emotions.
In the words of the author:
PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a homemade postcard.
PostSecret is the largest advertisement free blog on the net, maintains a Myspace page, has a video intro and a book.
Check it out.
Update: Guy has an interview with the founder
