Do souls inter-communicate among themselves after death?

Do souls of dead Muslims who knew each other during their lifetimes communicate with each other after death? If so, can the soul of the person that died later communicate news of the ones left behind (still alive)? I am quite keen to know answers to these questions based on the Qur'an and the authentic Ahadeeth, and as understood by the Salaf-us-Saliheen. Jazakallahu khairan.
