The best things in life come in threes; like friends, dreams and memories, someone once observed.  And how true has been this observation. The thing about old friends is that we get so used to them being around, we get so comfortable with them that we do not notice their flaws any longer.  Our memories with them always bring joy to our hearts and smiles on our faces.

These friends can be from our school or society or your colleges.  Fate can at time be cruel to us and make us get separated from our friends.  Our buddies become distant friends and our interactions may now get reduced to ‘liking’ or ‘commenting’ on their status updates and wishing them on their birthdays.  In this age of technology, physical space between two people may be anything but that in digital space is only that of a click.  So our tweets and posts manage to convey our feelings to one another to some extent.

To capitalize on our digital prowess and the need to be in cyber-touch with our old friends and batchmates, Alumni Portals are a good bet. They give us the benefit of connecting to all our classmates, see what they are up to as well as form new relationships with our seniors and juniors of our alma mater.  It is easy to navigate since all are listed according to the course they attended and the year they passed out.  You can know which city or country they are presently residing in, special occasions in their lives, interesting out of work activities they have been up to, the business they are in, career profiles that they have held and special announcements from their side.  If you have enjoyed the episode, ‘the one with the memorial service’ of the popular sitcom F.R.I.E.N.D.S, you know that such portals can also be a platform to joke and share a laugh.

So, join The Alumni Portal of your college and rekindle the forgotten friendship and relive those memories!!!
