Late on Monday, May 25, something neat and peculiar and romantic and funny happened in the social sphere. A marriage proposal was made.

Ok, I know you are asking "How in the hell is that big news? Actually, how is that news at all?" Let me tell you.

This is the first time I have seen a marriage proposal offered up through the Internet. I know it has been done before but this is the first I have seen.

Another thing that is a little different for me is that it was sent out over Twitter. To follow along with the way it went down, you can read the following Tweets from the timeline of Mark Davidson (AKA @markdavidson):

So there you have it. A marriage proposal and an acceptance made entirely in cyberspace. On Twitter no less.

You go intarwebs.

Now I can only wonder if their wedding will be broadcast live on Ustream?
