Here is my Google Docs Presentation:

This presentation is very interesting. There are alot of valid points that make PostSecret seem as if people really are doing it to rid themselves of guilt or burden. At the same time, the theory part does not seem very clear. I don't know if what I understood from the presentation is what you are trying to convey, most of my understanding was based on assumptions. Other than that, it was very interesting, and it makes me want to check out PostSecret.

You have a clear topic for your presentation. While you do have premises, assumptions, and claims, they are somewhat hidden within text. I would suggest making your theories more apparent, drawing more attention to your main points. This will help make it easier on the reader to immediately understand what you are stating.
I love the images you have used to supplement your project, especially the diagram of the word "secret." This summarizes the obsession with anonymity of the multimedia author.
Also, you have effectively included references to the works we have read in class. You have a very good beginning to your presentation, with minor tweaking and spell check (I saw one misspelled word), you should be ready to submit your final version.

I like how you put your presentation together. It makes me want to go look at PostSecret. I suppose it can be addicting for one reason or another. I only noted some problems in formatting. Some of the text on a few slides end abruptly. I think some of the text may have been cut off in the presentation's new format within your blog. I can see the pieces coming together clearly: author, multimedia, individual topic. I would say that some further wordage on these essential parts of your presentation will make it altogether stronger, more glued together.
