Cutie pie: Yes, and I know I shouldn’t have it (bec its not filtered) but since I got a smart phone At&t automatically added a data plan to the phone, so I put it down to the minimum requirement @ 200 MB a month which is very little so I can’t stream any videos or be on to much. I thought I can get around it when I got my phone but they became very strict on that rule that u have to get a data plan on a smart phone (I bought a refurbished bb), so now I’m looking for a good phone (qwerty keyboard with good camera) and not a smart phone because I want to cancel the data plan.
Always here, I guess ur right, but these days all communication is done through electronics. Also this way one can say or express even small talk and whatever comes to ur mind. However a phone call is usually more official, since there is more of a connection. The tweeting and chatting is also good for reuniting old friends or people that one would never say much to otherwise, and through this u could learn more about the other one, especially since with the instant messaging one just spurs anything that comes to his mind without thinking to much (I’m not saying that phone conversations can’t b like that too).
