From the Rancho Palos Verdes Patch:
While all of these situations might have been detrimental to your friendships 10 years
ago, fear not! Modern technology has made K.I.T. a relatively easy thing to do. Try
the following to stay in contact and up-to-date with friends and family (when phone
tag starts to get annoying): 1. Facebook: Arguably the most popular social networking
website out there, Facebook is a great way to stay in touch with friends and classmates
from high school. Julianne Holloway, Palos Verdes Peninsula High School graduate and
now a junior at UC Irvine, says that she wouldn't have a clue what most of her friends
are up to if it weren't for status updates: "Most students are on Facebook," Holloway
said. "It gives me one location to see all of my friends past or present and I can
see what they're up to and contact them if I want." This is a great excuse (as if
you need one) to start stalking!
