Technology is great isn't it? It used to be if you lost touch with someone, maybe they changed their phone number or moved, that was it unless there was some odd chance encounter. In today's world you have to work quiet hard at losing touch with someone. Ah, the wonderful world of Facebook. I'll be the first to admit, I love it and I am addicted.
An added benefit is being able to "check-up" on people from my past (I am totally aware that this makes me sound a bit stalker-ish). Sure, due to privacy settings, you may only be able to see a picture and perhaps status updates. But for me there is something oddly comforting in knowing that people from my past are out there somewhere. It's also nice when people from my past find me. It's nice to know that after a year or ten that someone has thought about me enough to warrant a checking of my name.

I totally agree. I moved around a lot when I was younger so I have friends from all over the place. I love the availability of a comment here and there without the pressure of a phone call or one on one email.
