I was in my buddy Pete‘s wedding this weekend. While standing around waiting to be photographed while wearing a tux in the sun, I got to thinking: in the age of the Internet, why can’t we share some of these photos immediately?

So, I pulled out my phone, shot a quick photo of the bride and groom, and posted it to my blog.

Voila. I got the scoop. I was the first to publish a photo of the newly married couple.

That was easy.

Then I really got to thinking:

• There’s got to be interested folks from out of town who couldn’t make it
• We could have livestreamed the ceremony and reception
• We could set up a Flickr group for folks to share their photos
• We could capture video clips and quick interviews with guests and share them online
• We could treat this wedding as a major media event!

Could these new online capabilities spawn an entirely new industry — a “wedding web content” industry?

All this helps prove my idea that content is all around us and all we have to do is capture and share it.

What do you think? Thumbs up? Thumbs down?

What are some other ways we could use vidly?
