1.) The PostSecret website is not your average internet hotspot. When I initially got on the website, it made me think of those annoying yet humorous chain emails that I would receive from my old great aunt who just learned how to send an e-mail and wanted to show off by sending everyone a funny message. The site’s messages did not really intrigue me. Honestly, I don’t really get most of the humor. Some of it was funny, but most of the secrets did not get to me. Also the site was not very visually appealing, as it consisted of a black background. There is nothing on the site that could jump out and grab the reader’s attention.
2.) The images were good visual manifestations of the secrets because of the irony used. The pictures and the messages correlated well and told a story that would bring an lol to any reader. For example, the fourth postcard a very happy couple but had the wife’s darkest secret written on the card, she having another husband who is in prison.
3.) The importance of the writing is to state the secret being held by the person in the image. For example without the writing, image 4 would be a happy couple and no one would know that the woman had a husband who was in jail.
4.) The images were the first things to jump out at me. Of course, images appeal to the eyes before words do. So naturally, I looked at the images and then read the writings in order to see what the secret was.
5.) I think this secret is arguing how some people blame on their problems on the government. Believe it or not, some people who are out of jobs put the total blame on the government and poor George Bush. True, the president did make some mistakes…..ok maybe not some, a lot of mistakes but you can’t blame him for all the trouble in your life.
