People build homepages for many reasons. One of the most popular reasons, other than dabbling in "e-commerce," is to maintain day to day contact with relatives and friends, whether separated by distance or by hectic schedules. Popular content for these types of homepages usually features the latest family photos. Occasionally, a "family letter" is added, similar to those that many families traditionally send out over the winter holidays.

One expample of a family homepage is this birthday party homepage and website. It features pictures of the birthday boy and assorted activities happening at his 2nd birthday party. It was posted so that the author could share her pictures with the rest of the family. It also gave the mom the opportunity to show off her wonder-child to her friends at work.

Another family-oriented site featured photos from a family reunion. (Check it out and see if you can find the baby's dad.) This particular website is really only of interest to the family that held the reunion. It's a great way to share the get-together with family members that were not able to attend. It's also a great way to share the photos you take at the event with the folks that will travel miles away before they have a chance to see them.
