how my stepdaughter communicated online back in 2005-2006 she would have been a high school freshman at the time. my TT post from july 29, 2006 http://www.toledotalk.com/cgi-bin/comments.pl/16/2793 q. Last winter, I asked my stepdaughter how she communicates with friends. Results with order not indicating importance: - talking on the cell phone - text messaging on the cell phone - Internet instant messaging - blogs and/or message boards (mainly MySpace) - PhotoBucket.com for photo sharing I asked, "What about e-mail?" She said her and friends rarely use e-mail. That was news to me. q.. yes, back in 2005-2006, email was supposedly dying off, but the Blackberry probably kept it going for businesses, and now today in 2014, email is still going strong for the right and the wrong reasons. #email
