Did you know that when you get an Evite, the "hostess" can see exactly when you log in to read the invitation?
And she will feel snubbed for sure when you log out without replying "Yes, I'll be there!" or "Sorry, I can't make it".
Not committing at all is almost worse than saying "Sorry, I can't make it," right?
What happened to the old fashioned paper invitations we used to receive in the mail? We could put them up on the bulletin board and sleep on it before making any sort of decision, and no one was the wiser.
I'm as committed to technological advances as the next guy, until I recently threw a party via Evite and could see in real time exactly who was riding the fence on coming to my shin-dig.
Come to think of it, it's kind of like having a blog. (Don't worry, I can't see specifically WHO reads or doesn't, just how many!)

Well, there are some ways of seeing who's reading... Being the nerdy dude who's webmaster for a blog that just started getting spam comments, I know how... And I'm not telling. Privacy unless you're a spammer! Woo.
Anyways, I don't really schedule enough ahead of time to ever have this kind of problem.
I have a sneaking suspicion this post was meant for me :)
