Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to displaying comments on a secret in an anonymous social networking application. Technology is directed to a social networking application for sharing secrets anonymously. The social networking application receives a message from a user, anonymizes the message to generate a secret and shares the secret with other users. The other users cannot know who posted the secret. A message can include multimedia content such as a text, an image, an audio, a video or a combination thereof. The secrets are displayed in a graphical user interface (GUI) as secret GUI components. A secret GUI component displays the secret in a particular format. In one example, a text of the secret is superimposed on an image or a background color of the secret in the secret GUI component. The secret GUI component includes GUI elements using which users can "love"/"heart"/"like" a secret and/or comment on the secret. The secret GUI component can display author-viewer relationship information or a location information of the author.
