Looking for a long lost friend.

More than 7 years ago, probably about 8 years, I met a guy online, I was playing the game Diablo (not Diablo 2, but the first Diablo) and I met him on diablo's server battlenet. Somehow due to similar interests in gaming we became friends and he snail mailed me some photographs of himself, family and his home. I promised to write back but I never did except for a few emails. I also bought some postcards with photographs of my country intending to send it to him but never did either. I have to admit that I was a real lazy boy. Months past and contact was lost when email address was changed, and months became years.

Recently I was clearing out an old drawer and saw his letter and those postcards I bought years back. I felt really bad for not fulfilling a promise. I would like to contact him again but wasn't sure if he would remember me. I guess if I send him back one of his photographs he would.

His address was in Woodlawn Ave, Columbia, USA. Problem is, how can I be sure if he is still staying there? Because if his not, my mail there would probably be dumped or lost and I wouldn't know if I manage to contact him.

Assuming if he moved, how could I find out where he moved? Is there any local websites to help locating a person

Suggestions?

Thanx.

Which state?

There's probably a Woodlawn Ave. in most cities named Columbia. Like in Missouri and South Carolina.

Google for search engines, locators. Lots of tools there.

I'd type his name in at Zabasearch and see what you come up with.

It's actually kinda scary what that site digs up for free... :wow:

Yes, its scary. Now I realised he has another address in Hopkins. But I can't find any emails. Perhaps I will try snail mailing both addresses.

You also might want to try a generic whitepages such as dexonline.com or the like. If you know his name and the city he was in you can see if he is still listed.
