Most of my spare time recently has been taken up by the search for the perfect envelope for my "save the dates" for my wedding next year. Most people would order a card or post card, something that can be posted around Australia for 60c. But one thing I'm hoping you're learning about me is that I'm not like most people. And so I decided to order a 14 inch personalised beach ball.
After taking it to the post office I realised not only is there no envelope to fit these bad boys, but I would have to cut down the air piece and hand make envelopes all so that I could have a unique invitation.
So this got me thinking, if there is room for online journalism, is there room for online invitations, or online weddings?
This skit about a "Skype Table" at a wedding made me laugh and laugh.

It seems that maybe, like in journalism, we have to work out the even medium of embracing the online world and holding onto some traditions.
