If you often looked to juicycampus.com for your daily fix of gossip about your fellow classmates, then you might be out of luck. The website, in which students could post virtually anything from comments about the lack of parking spots on campus to how their most recent helping of chicken fingers at the caf, "didn't sit so well," is no longer. The sites goal was to foster discussion between college students about anything from politics to sex to campus life. But more often than not topics revolved around talking trash about other students, teachers and neighboring colleges.
Therefore in an effort to revamp juicycampus.com, and return to it's original objective, the website CollegeACB.com, also known as College Anonymous Confession Board, has been created to take its place. According to College ACB's blog, the site's goal is to "promote deep and thoughtful discussion--as well as the occasional 'gossipy' post." Part of me thinks such discussion won't keep most college students coming back for more and it may only be a matter of time until the trash talking begins again. But I suppose only time will tell to see if CollegeACB's new and improved mantra is followed through by it's users. In the meantime check it out for yourself, and maybe while you're at it leave a thought provoking insightful post, so far there are none.
