I am in the *slow* process of building my first website in...years...since probably 2003 or 2004. I was looking for a guestbook to add to the site when I realized that I dont recall seeing any lately.

I look through my bookmarks (and I have a lot of them), and I found only two sites with a guestbook (this site is one of them).

So, my question is, should I forget about the guestbook or go ahead and get one?

Personally, these days, it is all about social interaction. If your site requires/has capacity for one, stick up a small forum. Guestbooks are impersonal, and I don't remember the last time I took the time to sign one.

Thank you iGeek! Yeah, I thought they might have been out when I saw not many sites had those anymore. Oh well, no one ever really signed mine anyway.


Bohumil Jaan, Im confused as to what you are trying to say? Guestbook for a wedding? Im talking about website guestbooks....

although ppl don't use guest books that much any more shoutboxes are an alternative to a forum or even an addition to a forum
