Retro Friends: A blast from the past

A recent article in the Toronto Globe and Mail notes the growing
number of women who are rekindling friendships from the past. One explanation
for the trend: Technology is making it easier to find that best friend from
high school that you haven’t heard from for ages. You can Google her; search
for her on a reunion site like Reunion.com or Classmates.com; or perhaps find
her on one of the popular social networking sites like My Space or Facebook…

High
school friendships are built upon common experiences—family, neighborhood, social, and academic ties. One woman interviewed in the Globe and Mail article said that one of the
joys of these friendships is that they remind her of who she once was.
