The Future of Keeping in Touch

Adam Kushner wonders (via Dana Goldstein) will Facebook put college reunions out of business, since they make it easy to stay abreast of what’s happening in other people’s lives. I would imagine the reverse impact — that Facebook will make more people feel vaguely in touch with a wider circle of other people, and therefore more interested in seeing them face-to-face after a five or ten year absence.
