newsy
Full of updates
Newsy describes something full of news or gossip, especially in a chatty, informal way: She wrote a newsy letter about everyone back home.
A newsy person enjoys sharing information and updates about others.
The word has a slightly old-fashioned, friendly quality—more kitchen-table gossip than breaking headlines.
