Seth Godin and I have a secret.
In a world where information is easily attainable sometimes being sneaky is a nice option.
Here's how, by using a site like this, you can transform a URL into a super cool password protected portal. The information is already out and available for the world to find, but you could provide a link to your flickr account or to a particular tweet. If the user can provide the code word, they earn access.
Lets test 'er out. http://trick.ly/35b
Pretty slick eh? (Unless you couldn't figure out my subtle password clue)
Just think of the implications. If you are after the tech savvy Millennial crowd, this may be a great way to create intrigue.
I see it now: e-mails or blog posts filled with secret codes and clues, or secret societies using their own password(s) to protect admittance and add to the exclusivity of membership. A passkey! Interesting gimmick, for sure.
