  1. i went here since i remember seeing a link to ‘post a secret’ on your blog earlier and thought this would be something similar…disappointed to see many posts there with people just speaking aloud their erotic fantasies. nothing wrong with that…but there is so much of ‘coming happening’ already every where you go…

  2. reshma: I agree. I thought PostSecret had a very different feel to it. This one is just a big bunch writing crap. But that intrigues me. When content is not censored at all (though this one is subject to mild time gap and censoring), is it likely that it will turn into a raunch fest? PostSecret is highly moderated content – the postcards are handmade and sent to these guys – it requires some amount of effort and patience. Besides PostSecret can always junk the ones that break certain codes. Is it that there aren’t enough forums to talk about erotic fantasies?

  3. Yep PostSecret is way better than this. Since it supports the suicide hotline, some of the cards chosen definitely are sad. But it seems to help others who are in similar situations so its heartwarming.

    I thought orkut alone had several such erotic fora. Am I wrong?
