Connecting with old friends through the computer

I have enjoyed connecting with some old friends on the computer through my space.

I have found friends I haven't seen in many years.They find me or I have found them.

It's a great feeling to be in contact with them even if it's just online.

Childhood friends,brings back lots of fun memories to chat about plus updates on our lives now.

And of course the main subject-our kids.

Do you have any old friends you have reconnected with through the computer world?

Do you like seeing friends you have lost contact with?

Tell me your thoughts and stories.

I'm afraid I have no recent stories, but making new friends is also a lot of fun Kim.

As a college student, it seems almost natural that I would have a facebook. On there, I've connected with people I haven't seen since I was five! It's crazy the people who will find you on there and get in contact! :)

I have not kept in touch with anyone from HS, or college. And only one person from the Army.

there seem to be very few people in my age bracket on the computer. Except maybe for work. I went to school long before the computer era.

I haven't hooked up with anyone I used to know because of the Internet--but the idea is great for people I am sure :)

I found a dear friend from Middle school on Reunion.com. She was like a sister to me, but when her Mom died, her Aunt moved her away. It has been great catching up!

I got back in contact with my best friend from high school on the internet.
It is a connection I hope continues all of my life.
It is amazing to me how we can talk or write and it is like no time has passed at all.
That kind of friend is a rare gift.

I've also found that my blog (which is sorely neglected right now) has been a good contact point with friends and relatives I don't often hear from. They don't write but they read my blog and comment on it.

I think because of security issues it is harder to
find old friends today than it was ten years ago.
