Facebook allows you to follow their lives, without going to any more trouble than you want to interacting with them. No phone calls, no emails, no coffee dates but you still get to see little things about them. It gives you a window into their life. So, friendships stay strong, or at least, continue on some level.
Hey Bright, I didn't even realize you are now Flipflopz! Thanks for the great explanation about the joys of Facebook. Now I finally get it!
