8. The system for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 1 , wherein the private data includes digitized video.
9. The system for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 8 , wherein a user interface is provided, the user interface playing the digitized video responsive to user interface operations.
10. The system for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 1 , wherein the third software module presents a table of contents having entries related to the subset of the global yearbook data.
11. A method for providing a customized digital yearbook comprising:
capturing global content for a digital yearbook and storing the global content in a database;
capturing private content associated with a particular user of the digital yearbook, the particular user having a unique user account for accessing the digital yearbook, and storing the private content in the database;
editing and organizing the global content and the private content within the database;
creating customized data from the database by selecting custom yearbook data therefrom based on directives set by the particular user in a view by user file of the particular user from the global content and including post-production the private content associated with the particular user; and
presenting the customized data at a device associated with the particular user.
12. The method for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 11 , further comprising a step of delivering the customized data to the device associated with the particular user.
13. The method for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 11 , wherein the private data includes digitized text.
14. The method for providing a customized digital yearbook of claim 13 , wherein the digitized text is presented as an overlay mixed with an image of a user of the customized digital yearbook.
