I must send 600-800 texts' a month, yet I can string a perfectly good sentence together.
What's wrong with keeping in touch with family and friends over the internet? I use Facebook the most as it is the best in my opinion.

Can't stand any of them, have a facebook account but rarely log onto it. I think these things are slowly killing the art of conversation. What happened to picking up the phone and having a proper chat with someone, or teenagers actually going to see their friends as opposed to sitting on the computer for endless hours talking to them.

I sound like an old man, I'm only 29 lol

EXACTLY!!! I signed up to my space only to search for some things but I've never set up a profile. I don't belong to any of those other sites, or any blogs. And I'll be 29 in 3 months.

I personally think those kinds of sites are also the leading cause of verbal diarhhea. People get so used to typing their every thought and fleeting fantasy that suddenly they think it's ok to start talking to a perfect stranger about the weather, then suddenly spout out that they popped three hemorrhoids last night and by the way they really hate that new Star Trek movie. I also blame texting for peoples inablility to type a complete sentence.

SPB, I guess we'll just have to be old angry fuddy-duddies together.

it is ideal for staying in contact, when you are a teenager you will be together and i still go out a lot, but as soon as we leave school (which is next week! ) we wont see each other as much, or perhaps never again as i know quite a few of my friends are planning on moving to London, and even America and Australia! And a decent phone call would cost loads!!

They are good things to keep in touch with people, I'll admit that, when your miles away from each other, but teenagers (not all, but some) would rather stay in and sit at the computer from dawn till dusk and stare at the computer screen rather than actually go out and do stuff. This was what my niece was like when she was 14-15 and still is to a certain degree now and she's 19. I just think these things, facebook, myspace, msn messenger, twitter, bebo etc etc are far to intertwined in peoples lives these days, and in some respects are very dangerous. If you go onto facebook, and monitor it for a couple of days, you will find people posting everything they do from day to day, where they are, what they are having for dinner, when they went to the toilet, and this information in the wrong hands is very dangerous, you never know who is looking or watching your pages.

I think it's dumb personally, you can only send little small messages. Rather just use facebook.
