Online Divorce Registry?

Too Much Free Time

from the that's-when-you-need-it dept

Online wedding registries were an early e-commerce success story. It certainly makes a lot of sense. However, someone is wondering if the concept of the wedding registry really makes sense in the first place. After all, when people get married, they're bringing together two sets of stuff. Do they really need more stuff? However, after a divorce, when half (or more!) of your stuff goes away, maybe that's the time when you need new things. That's right. Someone has created an online registry site for the recently broken up or divorced called They Took Everything. Now we just need someone to set up a site where people can demand back the wedding gifts they gave a couple who later got divorced.

    Once everything is RFID-tagged, you'll even be able to track which household your gift ended up in.

    Dowry Killings

    I'm curious how this might impact the culture of Dowry Killings in India -- will it make it better or worse?
