KwikDesk is an online, anonymous and ephemeral communication platform that enables users to share and interact anonymously via messages called "kwiks", which are text messages limited to 300 characters. Users access KwikDesk through the website interface, or mobile device app. The founder, Kevin Abosch, a world-renowned visual artist created Kwikdsk as a conceptual art-project,[2] and as a response to trends amongst existing social media platforms. KwikDesk requires no login or password to use.[1] KwikDesk doesn't use cookies and doesn't track IP addresses.[2] Users set a date their submitted kwiks will self-destruct; either 24 hours, 10 days or 100 days. The Chinese version of KwikDesk was launched with the participation of human-rights activist and Tiananmen protest leader Wu'erkaixi[3]
