Most of my friends communicate with each other via texts. The only time we call is when you have to say something too complex for a text message. Even my parents have hopped on the bandwagon and text my sister and I if they need to tell us something. All my communications for work are done via email. I think the only time I got a call from them was when they told me to come in for the interview. I rarely use more than 100 or so minutes a month these days.
I'm not sure why people like texting. I abhor it. It takes ot long to communicate. especially on my end. It takes me forever just to type in a few words. And god forbid I mess it up then it takes a REAL long time. Even using IM on a computer where I can at least use a keyboard is too slow for me. And I type pretty fast. I prefer the instantaneous communication of speech.
