Shameless Plug

[Carlo Sandiego]

Hello, all. You may or may not know that I've been working on a web site project these past weeks. The basic idea of this website was to be a place in which people - ideally, anonymous, or mostly so - would post stories from their lives. I conceived of it originally as somewhere between a social experiment - "are people more objective, or at least more candid, when they're anonymous if they choose?" - a way of recording history as it's made, through the eyes of ordinary people - and simply a potentially fun idea.

Well, as of now, this website is up and running - and it needs a community.

I don't ask for anything particularly impressive, but it would be a great favor to me if you might at least check it out, post some things and hopefully have some fun. A web site very rarely develops a community unless you go out advertising for one, and so I'm essentially tapping everyone I know to help me with this. Of course, the project is technically done - the site HAS been built, after all - but the fun part of creating a site is watching it be USED by people. Hence my request.

Thank you in advance for whatever help you decide to give!
