I guess if there is wifi in the area we could set up Swedens laptop with video cam built in and do some live streaming somehow. Dang it I used to have a site that allowed live video and everyone could access the site and see the video. Hmmmm...

If you have an Apple comp you can hook up tp free I-chat, its like a built in web cam but you can communicate live. I dont have Apple but it seems to be getting more and more popular.

I have a red apple in the fridge, I'll hook up a string to it and see if I can use it to communicate....

Now that is funny right there! Bummer I am on slow dial up so that apple in your fridge might be the only possible communication of this wedding I would get too.

I had dial-up before they brought broad-band high-speed internet to our neighborhood almost 9 years ago, and I know what you mean. I could never go back to dial-up, but you might want to look at your wireless telephone service provider, like Verizon, they usually provide high-speed internet connection, it's not quiet as fast as broad-band, but it's still much faster than a regular 56K dial-up connection.

56K! Most nights I am hooked up at 26.4K. Checked into satellite too expensive and no carrier can get us wireless or DSL out here....... yet. I tell my kids one day when I sell this place and move towards a city/town life (Lord my ancestors are flipping in their graves right now) the first thing I am getting is DSL and they can leave me alone for 3 days.
