Have any of you looked for old friends on the internet? I've been looking for a friend for many years and finally found her! Tell me about how you managed to find them, because I looked for years before I finally got her!
I have used The White Pages...it is a website that has the phone directory of the whole US. I have also used databases on Ancestry.com that lists many such directories. Or just goggle the persons name.
I think face book may have been, indirectly, how I found her. I found her son through the Air Force Academy. It was ridiculous given that I had no idea that she even HAD a son. But he mentioned some names and I followed up. Not too many people my age who I know have facebook sites. It was very convoluted and it is still rather funny that I found her at all.
I guess I should say that I'm 54 years old, and was looking for a gal I knew when I was 12. The fact that I found her was a quirk, and my parents were friends with her parents, so Mom and Dad are tickled.
