Caught news of a new site called PostMimi at Slant Eye for the Round Eye. It’s a PostSecret-style blog, where the author Karen encourages Asian Americans to e-mail or mail their secrets to her.

I like the idea.  But many Asian Americans already routinely post their secrets under anonymous handles on sites like the 44s and 8 Asians.  I remember admin-ing the 44s and meeting some guy who admitted that he had been convicted of attempted rape, and that he didn’t care or have remorse.  It was baffling (and sickening).  So I wonder whether anyone will actually post anything original.
