... which sounds kinda ick :P but it's a networking site, primarily Dutch oriented. A highschool friend sent me an invite looooooooooooooong long ago, and I finally succumbed.

I'm having one OMG! moment after the other, finding people from my highschool class there. So bizarre after 14 years (zomg, I can't believe it's that long >_<).

heh, I finally joined a group for my school from colorado on facebook. within 8 hours, got a friend request from a classmate.

but a lot of them, either married (and changed name, which is what the one did) or I didn't like to begin with. Have a few on myspace, but never talk to any of em

Yeah, I think Myspace recently added the option of having a field for Maiden name, which certainly makes sense for a lot of the women out there. I kept mine, but many don't, and it makes it awfully difficult to go about finding people years down the track, when many have gone on and gotten married and such.

yep. I know at least one old friend of mine that got rid of hers specifically to keep people from finding her. She'd had a very bad highschool experience.

I've had a few friend requests from people I wasnt really friends with, but added them more to see how we all turned out. One guy who was always an asshole is now a elementary school teacher, from what I heard via another classmate. Some people finally mellow out, thus, I don't just flat out turn down the requests.
