Well, not my wedding, but www.mywedding.com.
This weekend my wife and I will be going to a wedding in Leavenworth and I am looking forward to it. This is one of my wife's friends from work, so I didn't have much back story on the couple. That is not until I went online. Dan and Renea have a web site on mywedding that not only includes the information and directions, but also their story, photos, the wedding party bios and a blog.
Wedding sites, especially those associated with brides magazines have been around for some time. Registries and wedding planners as well. What I particularly liked about this site was the way it allowed the couple to own their wedding story and present the event in a simple, highly personalized fashion.
They provide accommodation information, attraction links, an RSVP function and contact information in a clean elegant format. It feels more like an extension of their event than a web site to me.
How do internet systems, the world wide web, online social networks, databases and client server technologies serve relationships and the arts? What are the consequences of putting so much data about ourselves onto the web, and how can we manage the impression and information that is given out?
