I don't take part in texting and those other things myself, so I don't really know if people put as much thought into messaging as they used to into writing letters.
I like texting as much as the next kidult - and embrace it as yet more evidence, along with email, that we live now in the post-aural age, when an unsolicited phone call is, thankfully, becoming more and more understood to be an unspeakable social solecism, tantamount to an impertinent invasion of privacy.
Calling is for # Men - Texting is for # Teenagers.
No one is talking. No one is emailing. No one is texting. It's spooky and scary.
I do use texting as a great way to communicate quickly, but I dont Twitter or anything.
If you're texting Magnus to say 'I think u r kewl' I'm going to kill you
