Half-baked opinions, served lukewarm.
Seems that Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, and IM have won the internet communication war. Blogs and email are for old farts:

I like keeping a blog though. It’s therapeutic, and I enjoy writing. Perhaps I should open up a Facebook and Myspace account, then write a program to automatically post to those sites when I update my blog… worth a thought!

In The Same Way The English Language is ‘Old-School’
Probably need to allude that the article reflects how e-mail use is declining for teenagers. I wouldn’t necessarily consider email ‘old-school’ but as ‘the standard’, in the same way that mailing a letter many years ago was the standard for formal communication. Let’s keep in mind that teenagers are the most dangerous force in the universe and should be locked in a cage until they are ready to speak English properly.
Chat, IM and text messaging have definitely increased as a % of my overall internet communication. The barrier to faster growth has been other people: ‘stop texting me because it costs me money’, ‘I don’t know how to do online chat’. Folks, it’s $5/month for an unlimited text plan, and meebo.com is the bomb.
