I've got a secret.
We all know PostSecret's deal by now. People create art out of their secrets on a postcard, mail it to that Frank guy, and he picks the best and features them every week. PostSecret has led to Frank being hailed as a great artist, and he frequently gives public lectures and travels around with public displays around the country. There are not one, not two, not three, but at least five PostSecret books on Amazon. Five coffee-table books! If I scanned pictures of the postcards my friends send me, do you think I could get a book deal? Some of them are very beautiful, but none of them divulge any juicy tidbits that leave you wondering about the larger going-ons of their lives. I'm just at a loss of words with this one, folks, and can't even think of something witty to say. Five books that are all user-generated content, with little, if any, commentary. I'm at a loss of words; I can't even try to be witty.
