The Facebook Wedding
Posted on April 27, 2009 by Nora DePalma
“Oh, you’re Nora, I recognize you from Facebook! Nice to meet you in person!”
At my Green Earth PR colleague’s wedding reception Saturday night, I learned why it’s called “social” media. I met people I’d never met before, but I pre-knew them. Thanks to Facebook.
i had quite a few friends at the reception, most of whom I correspond with on Facebook. Since we regularly post on each other’s pages-complete with our names and profile pictures-I immediately recognized and was recognized by several people in my friends’ social circles. Instant comfort! (Make that instant southern comfort. We were in Savannah.)
