Several of the popular cheerleaders ignored me. Some things never change. As the evening went on, I wondered why I hadn't kept in touch with many of my classmates. A few of them were friends I had known since elementary school, almost as long as I can remember. Which leads us, inevitably, to the Internet.
Technology is abandoned without a lot of thought.
People change jobs and leave their colleagues in the dust. Entire companies are formed, acquired or disbanded, and forgotten. Such, of course, is the nature of progress. People working on Internet time can't afford to be sentimental about the past because there is so much future ahead. Still, I can't help but wonder if we aren't leaving too much behind.
