The pending nuptials of the
Obviously, with a royal wedding you would anticipate a huge fan fare – the Prime Minister is even urging a parliamentary committee to declare the date a public holiday. But this is a whole different game when it comes to the technology we have at our fingertips today.
When William’s mother, Diana walked down the aisle, although it was broadcast for the world to see, there wasn’t anyone blogging about it during the ceremony or sending out a tweet about the dress or taking a photo of the crowd outside the church with their camera phone and posting it online in a matter of moments. But they will be now.
The date and location of the wedding, the dress Kate selects, and everything in between will undoubtedly be posted around the world in some way for everyone to re-tweet, ‘like’ (or not) and comment on. And with the date now locked in for late April, there will be plenty of time to pore over every blissful detail using the power of social media. So get ready because I don’t know if anyone is going to be able to escape it.
Will you be watching the royal wedding – and everything that leads up to it - or do you think you will have William and Kate overload by the time the big day arrives?

Even if I do feel like I have William and Kate overload, I think I'll still try to catch part of the wedding. Afterall, it's not every day you get to see a REAL princess get married! :)
It will be overload - and everyone will grumble but we'll still be talking about it! :-)
I'm excited for the wedding! I think every female at one point or another imagines herself having this huge fairy tale wedding and Kate is going to have it! I'll be watching Twitter, Facebook, RSS feeds and everything else like crazy as it gets closer. The nice thing about social media is if you're feeling overloaded, you can put down your cell phone or back away from the computer and come back when you think the buzz has died down a bit.
