'Wedding Window' Now Has Two New Features So Wedding Guests Can Better Interact With A Wedding Website

Wedding Window offers an ideal way for you to allow your friends and family to feel part of your special day. This is what Amy Ruocco, President of Wedding Window, has to say:

Teri McCracken built a business, Hang-Ups by Teri, using her favorite toys -- power tools. This self-taught wood worker and mother of three designs unique children’s art and whimsical decor items. “I love to start with a piece of wood and turn it into something magical,” says Teri. Her designs range from picture frames, mirrors, and sassy martini boxes to personalized children’s wall art. “Kids love to see their name in print. It is usually the first word we teach our kids to write.”

Teri’s own three children have been a great inspiration to her work and ideas. Her creative touch is seen in each of her children’s rooms. She even designed and built the cottage style furniture in her daughter’s room. The fuschia pink letters reading “Madison” stand out on her colorful orange walls. Sail away for days in Conor’s nautical dream room. Carter, the youngest, sleeps in a camper’s paradise with canteens hanging on the wall proudly spelling out his name. . And…she didn’t stop there.

Property Website Tells Home Buyers Where to Find Property

Grant Leigh, CEO of Gravity Communications, believes his company has found a unique solution to a problem many large property websites face: "We'd grown to about 100 000 listings spread over more than 3000 suburbs and we wanted to find a faster, more user-friendly way to get our visitors to the properties that would be of interest to them".

The normal Google-based street-level-map search approach adopted in the US and UK is not a viable option in South Africa because agents don't include street addresses in their listings and also because Google Maps isn't as granular in South Africa as it is in those countries. There are also other problems with the map-based approach.
