I’ll Tell You My Dirty Little Secret

My initial reaction to opening http://postsecret.blogspot.com/ was immediate amusement and enjoyment. Being a user of MySpace and Facebook, I have seen/read many bumper stickers similar to the photos present. With this experience, I knew the photos combined with the text would demonstrate a humorous perspective to each ‘secret’.

The visuals on this site provide a visual approach to gain the interest of the viewers. Personally, while looking at the site, I felt some of the photos gave justice to the text, while some did not.

The importance of the written verses is to tell a story or in this case a secret. Without the texts, it would be impossible to understand the points behind each submission.

Between the verses and the photos, the one that speaks to me the most is the verses. I think this is because I feel the verses tell the story while the photos bring emphasis and humor.

The image above is the one that stuck out the most to me. I find it very humorous and believe this 'secret' is also shared with the majority of Americans nationwide. :D
