A network of friends in e-communication era

Since I had Gmail account, I have saved a whole lots of e-mail addresses. Even though I do delete non-frequent e-mail accounts quite often, I did keep some non-frequent e-mail addresses as well. It took me almost five hours to shape up my gmail accounts in a clear-cut review. Right now, I have about 10 groups of e-mail accounts in my Gmail accounts. Taking advantage of this action, I cleaned one of my hotmail accounts, which I used to have my contact horde, and the contact information under my kodakgallery account.
 
In a world seeking for novel, speed, difference, and difference, seldom people cherish a life-time friendship, which I have dreamed before I went into elementary school. However, after a bunch of years struggling to keep in touch with my friends or to let who want to be friend with me in my life, I finally realized that most of the colleges, classmates, or passer-bys that one had hooked up with would finally slip through the test of time. Some friends prefer never to reply my messages, some always reply with cheering words although might be very short, and some would choose to reply when there is a necessity, either long or brief.
 
Well, I always appreciate my friendship and cherish, deeply inside, those very gracious ones for their importance in my life. To create a more effective way in the era of e-communication, today I composed some rules for my e-friendship network, here is the list:
  1. An active friendship list: For those who cherished me and my friendship, including those seldom or never reply my messages
  2. A list of historical groups: It is a collect of my historical activities and friendly relationship.
I hope there would be no more work on this contact list. J, it is a whoooooooooooooooooole lot of work. I spent about five hours finishing this task.
