Have you ever wandered what your school – mates are doing now? Well plenty of
people in Britain do. One of the most successful Internet venture in Britain has shown
how popular, and how lucrative, nostalgia can be. The website Friends Reunited was

started for fun in 1999 by a couple who was interested in knowing what their old
school friends were doing. The project snowballed and by 200 the site had 12 millions
members. You can also post a personal profile showing what you are doing now, and
read others people’s details. Steve Pankhurst, one of the founders of the site, thinks
that one of the reasons for its success is, that some people like to be anonymous. On
Friends Reunited, you can snoop on other people’s lives without giving away anything
about yourself if you don’t want to. Its also an opportunity to bolster your self –
esteem by showing off to everyone just how successful and happy you are now, even if
you weren’t while you were at school.
