GERMANTOWN, Md.--For millions of people, PostSecret is a weekly addiction--a place to read strangers' secrets as curated by one man: Frank Warren.

Each month, millions of people read PostSecret.com, and since the project's inception more than five years ago, the site has gotten nearly 345 million visits.

Warren sifts through the hundreds of secrets he receives each week from people all over the world, some on postcards, others in envelopes, and tries to find the 20 for the week that will best reflect the sentiments of the people who choose to open their hearts and send in a piece of themselves.

Each Saturday, Warren spends several hours organizing the secrets received that week in order to put up a new set of 20 on Sunday morning. On Saturday, June 26, as part of Road Trip 2010, CNET reporter Daniel Terdiman stopped in on Warren and his family and got a behind-the-scenes view of the production of Post Secret.
