For casual chit chat yes. But for deeper more personal communication I would say no. I mean a good example of this would be a group of 10 people all standing in a room texting other people that are in a room with 10 people. This seems crazy, but its whats happening every day. In some cases I think we over communicate if that is even a term. lol...but with all of this back and forth texting and twittering are we really communicating or just wasting time. I mean do u really need to know what your best friend had for lunch? I say we need to communicate more in person and not so much on the cell phones and email. I mean ask yourself this question. What would you rather receive. A email from your friend that has been forwarded a 100 times or a heart felt letter written by the same friend. I think that might make my point much clearer. Just my thoughts.
