Post Secrets




A very interesting blog, which at last count had over 15,000 links to it, caught my eye the other day. It's Post Secret, an online visual diary of anonymous postcards sent to an address, then scanned, and posted online. These cards detail little--and large--confessions of their senders.

Why hear about this in a design blog? Well, the postcards are very interesting, visually. The seem to serve as totems for the authors' fears; almost like the eponymous Native American totem poles, these cards are created to serve as a vessel and a storybook for their transgressions, which I find facinating.
