I met one of the first few people at Secret on a pub crawl in Vietnam. Hearing first hand what it was like behind the scenes made it sound like possibly the biggest shit show ever.
I'm curious to see what Secret does differently now.
Secret was filled with trashy posts and other types of low quality content without the ability to do much filtering.
It was just a bunch of people venting about the sex they were having or other minor petty stuff they couldn't say to whoever in their lives. Not exactly revolutionary stuff.
It's ironic that at the same time Facebook faces challenges regarding the publication of fake news, we also want completely anonymous information.
I'm really looking forward to this. I was bummed when it went away and think its return is potentially very timely.
i thought they raise 6MM, and returned most of the money to the VC after growth stalled ?
