So thanks to Facebook, Orkut and other social networking communities, I had a blast with the past. Nice to catch up with people, squeal in excitement and at times in shock to see how your friends have turned out. And yeah, catch up with them finally after so many years.
I sometimes wonder how people managed to stay in touch before the advent of social networking sites. How effective really were alumni associations?
With all and sundry now being connected on social networking sites, you KNOW what's happening with your friends, on a daily basis. You know where they've been, you know how they look like, you know what they do, what they do for a living, relationship status, employment history, et al. How will reunions look like, 10 years from now? Will there be reunions at all? Won't social networking take the whole fun out of reunions?
