Often, just telling a secret isn’t enough, or isn’t possible.
People go to all kind of different places to share secrets, confessionals, agony aunts, and now the internet is becoming a popular place for sharing secrets.
Sites like tumblr provide lots of different  blogs people can confess or share secrets on, from personal confessions to confessions about ‘fandoms’

Another popular confession is that of the anonymous postcard, seen in Coffee Aroma in Lincoln:

and famously on the website/book PostSecret. This is a website, started off as a book, wherein people can send psotcards anonymously telling their biggest secrets. These secrets can be anything from information about affairs to simple comment on living room colours.


Whether people choose to post their secrets online, or tell a friend, it’s nothing new to suggest that as humans we cannot keep a secret. Do we long to be discovered? Or is it the result of constantly being told the truth is the most important thing?
