High school Alumni

A reader named Chris wants to let
everyone know about this Web site: "You can look up old friends from school.
They have links for colleges, too. It's very cool and fun to use. I found
people I hadn't seen in over 10 years and was able to see what they are
doing these days. I then put my info in for my class and now people can
contact me if they want to. It's something nice."
