why burn bridges? Just accept everyone and let the good times roll!

I assume you aren't putting TOO personal of stuff on your facebook. I put the stuff I wouldn't mind telling old acquaintances if I bumped into them on the street.

Hmmm yeah, but there are no bridges: I am in touch with just two people from my schooldays, two good friends, and I'd like to keep it that way.

What these sites do is construct a permanent present where you're still connected / able to contact / spy on all the people you've ever known. You are shown as the sum of your past. Before such sites existed, you would lose touch with people and that was that, they would no longer have any connection with you. I feel uneasy about this change.
