I know classes are over, but I thought this was a pretty interesting article. The NY Times wrote an article about wedding-related community boards. I find it interesting though, because so these people meet over common bonds of wedding planning and progress (usually quickly) into ftf meetings and eventually become wedding guests.
I just read a post this morning about one woman having extra seats at her upcoming wedding, so she posted a public invite on the forum. Seems risky to me. In my opinion, that bond must be pretty strong to invite them to something as personal as a wedding.

Thanks, Ashley!!
I don't know how I missed this article!
That's interesting, too, about inviting recent online friends to one's wedding. I wonder if the definition of friendship is changing for some parts of our society.
I actually think I'm going to keep this blog going, so feel free to post more links like this!!
