I've not only reconnected with a bunch of my high school peers, but have seen that some of those living in the same region have had intercity get-togethers. I went to my 20th reunion, had a good time and I'm even more likely now to go to my 25th now that I've been in very friendly contact with many of the people with whom I grew up.<br><br>Maybe it's generational, too -- the generation that's grown up with e-mail, cell phones, IMs, texting and, now, Facebook never need lose contact with their friends. 25, 20, even 15 years ago, when you left for high school for college or left from college for the real world, unless you were in the same locale, you either had to write letters or run up a serious long distance bill to keep up with your school chums. Now, it's easy.<br><br>And I'm not so sure that's conducive to the broadening that should occur as you get older because you can stay in your circle of friends rather than widen it or create new circles.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[coyote27]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 31st 2009 11:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Facebook Making School Reunions Obsolete?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/03/31/facebook-making-school-reunions-obsolete/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/03/31/facebook-making-school-reunions-obsolete/</guid><description><![CDATA[Facebook is for d-bags and losers. I don't care what anyone says. When you graduate, you move on. I have no interest in what someone is doing now, in ten minutes, or in ten years. Have any of you people ever heard of good old fashion phone calls? Or a letter? All you facebook junkies are just cheesy. I have 900 facebook friends! Sweet! How many real everyday friends do you have? Ya. Thought so. Facebook is for children. While you are chit chatting posting trash on your facebook, I will be out making money(lots) and friends the old fashion way. Facebook, lol. What a joke. Everyone on facebook is just  wasting time.  I like when you run into someone you haven't seen in a while. I hate that people you don't want to see somehow make there way into your life through facebook. Go do something real. Not this fake facebook garbage. I rest my peace. Fricken D-Bags!! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[toughguy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 31st 2009 2:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Facebook Making School Reunions Obsolete?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/03/31/facebook-making-school-reunions-obsolete/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/03/31/facebook-making-school-reunions-obsolete/</guid><description><![CDATA[TOUGHGUY U NEED TO GROW UP,,,TOO BAD U HAVE NO SOCIAL LIFE,,,,,,,]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[101]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 31st 2009 3:36PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
