Hubby is, how shall we say, an “analog” man. By choice, he does not use a cell phone, uses email only sparingly, and does not engage in any social media sites. So, needless to say, he finds my fascination with my BlackBerry, blog and twitter account somewhat baffling. But I think this latest development really takes the cake in his mind.
Tonight, I’m attending a stranger’s wedding and I’ll be live-tweeting it the entire time. Here’s how he noted this on our family calendar:
So, yes, I am going to “someone’s” wedding.
Well, to be fair, the bride is not a complete stranger. I did speak with her for about 15-20 minutes at the Social Capital Conference, and introduced her to you in my recap post of that event. That’s right — it’s Jordan, and the Project Priceless wedding.
In keeping with her and finance’s social media focus, she’s asked a few local bloggers to attend the wedding and “cover it” by live-tweeting. Sure, it’s a little unusual, but whatever. I’ll be there. I’ve got my heels waiting for me in the car for when I slip out of the office, and they’re a shiny black patent — you know, to match with my central accessory: my smart phone.
If you’d like to follow along, the twitter hashtag for the wedding is #ppwedding and start time is 5pm. No worries if you don’t have a twitter account, Jordan explains how you can follow along.
Ha, clearly it’s our husbands who should be BFFs instead!! 😉 Hope the wedding was grand, I enjoyed reading your twitterstream this morning!
Glad you got a chance to check out the tweet stream … there was so much love in the air last night, I almost thought we’d all float away
I think your husband and mine would get along. He doesn’t use Twitter, deleted his Facebook and he never got my blog. He’s okay with my creative writing, but not blabbing out my life to the internet
