Since it’s start the internet has been evolving rapidly at an uncontrollable rate. Just about anyone could publish a website these days and just about anyone could view them. Im not surprised of some of the things I come across on a regular. Who knew someday we’d live in a world where you could hire someone online, to come and spit on you for a reasonable price? No really. Google it.

A few months ago a friend put me on to a very different but ‘interesting’ website. PostSecret.com. Not sure of the purpose, I quickly skimmed through the website trying to make sense of it. For the first 4 minutes it appeared to be something an obsessive-crazed journalist put together in his basement. The site was full of secrets. Secrets about sex, about lies about love ones. Secrets about rape, murder, then love and happiness. Then, after about 5 minutes in I realized these weren’t the secrets of one man. They were secrets of random everyday people? I thought to myself. What a great idea.

People send in home-made post cards to an address provided on PostSecret.com and everyday people send in their deepest secrets. Some secrets are touching, others ore sad, but most are compelling. Every Sunday, about 20 new secrets are posted for the world to read.

They’ve even published 3 books full of secrets. I myself purchased one and I have to say, its an interesting read. They are available on Amazon.com.

Caution: Some of the content on PostSecret.com are of graphic nature. I strongly suggest you do not visit the website if you are uncomfortable with it.
