Hmm... I wonder if I can buy some Internet here?
I was scanning wedding headlines today and I came across this little bit of wedding planning “novelty.” Apparently someone in Minneapolis got the “brilliant” idea that there’s a lot of wedding advice to be found online, and a lot of wedding resources as well. So she built a store where brides could go in and search all sorts of digital resources.
Umm… as someone who writes a digital wedding advice column, let me be the first to say: “Hey all you brides out there! You don’t have to do to a physical store to find digital resources with wedding ideas.” Surprising, right? You’d think so if someone is creating a store for it. But guess what… a few years back, mankind stumbled onto a cool little discovery called the “Internet.” And if you want to research things, you can just open a computer, go online, and research them without leaving your house.
I guess I’m probably preaching to the choir by pointing out here that the Internet is packed full of wedding advice websites like Practically Ever After, and you don’t need to go anywhere or (for the most part) pay anything to access them. But if someone wants to pay for the overhead of a store so people can access digital wedding advice, well, I guess, more power too them. I, on the other, hand, think I’ll stick with surfing the Internet from my couch when I want to do my wedding vendor research. It just seems more convenient (plus, I don’t have to leave my bath robe).
