Anonymous confessions from people in your contacts. Raised $35 million, ran for sixteen months, and was closed by a founder who said it no longer represented his vision, which was presumably the confessing.

Filed 11 years after the fact, which is roughly how long it takes to be sure. Secret: 15 months, cause “Shut down by its founders”, no known dependants.
