Connecting people...!

"kal mil jaaye,
to hogi khushnasibi..."

remember these lines from the song pal-kk??
well that doesnt seem to be the case today.
The word 'khushnasibi' seems to have been replaced by 'social networking'

I changed lot of schools as a kid..
I got 'disconnected' with my friends after i completed my schooling.
There were some friends who i had not been touch wid for abt 10years or more.
I never thought i would be able to reconnect with them...but it did happen.
Thanks to the phenomenon called 'social networking'
There was an orkut era and now theres booming facebook era.
Though i would say the latter has a huge share in reuniting me with my long lost friends!!!! :)

So many changes,so many turns...when i met my long lost friends i realised how much time had been passed by...also i was overwhelmed to know that they still remebered me.
Many have been debating weather this whole social networking craze is a boon or bane..
Many people are saying that its taking away the 'personal touch' from the real definition of being 'in touch with'
But i will choose to differ on this...In today's materialistic and competitive world where people hardly find anytime to meet and greet each other,where they hardly find few seconds to write a letter or send a real e-card,or may not afford to make a call (thanks to there service providers soaring prices),I feel Facebook is a one-whole solution to it.

People may or may not find time do other things or may find lot many excuses for not making calls or messages or not be able to meet...but they definitely don't shy away from  checking into their FB accounts..

As of my personal experience is concerned...i take good time to come out of my shell and open up to people.But that's not the case on FB..its easy to open  through words...i find it difficult to make friends in real approach...but i did make bunch of pals(and that too good ones) on FB :)

Social networking is really a bane...all the critics need to do is get used to technology,upgrade themselves... :) :) :)
