I've just written an email to my very oldest friend saying 'I see from your daughter's Facebook page that you've hurt yourself -- are you okay?'
However we may have imagined the future, back in 1967 as we lolled around in our school uniforms on the lawn at lunchtime, we could never have imagined the possibility of formulating a sentence like that.

I've caught myself telling people I know someone from Twitter twice this week. And what's weirder, I think it's true: I now have quite complex relationships with a whole cast of people I've never met. Which is kind of great.
I think it's great too. And I'm getting a bit sick of having the argument with non-social-networking friends on an almost daily basis about the automatic privileging of physical presence ('real' friends and distinct from ('only') electronic friends. Why people persist in thinking of it as a dichotomy I really do not know.
' ... as distinct from ...'
*slaps own wrist*
I understood what you meant. And I think the physical presence thing is a furphy - it wasn't necessary for epistolary relationships, so why should it be necessary now?
yes and where will it all go...
