...Confessional Art PostSecret postsecret.blogspot.com A fascinating public airing of private thoughts-some dark, others funny, endearing or disturbing-written on homemade postcards and collected by blogger Frank Warren of Germantown, Maryland. Anyone can contribute, and thousands have. Just make a card and mail it to Warren-he suggests that you be brief, legible and creative-and, if he likes it, he'll scan it and post it on his site.
