Here are their responses:
Safety: hands free texting not useful, most people are dodging a response, it's easier to text, texting keeps you from interrupting other people, people are lonely
Consumer Electronics: fun, fast, convenient quick answers
Family: confusing and unsafe, no one wants to communicate anymore, privacy, unsafe while driving
Culture: Lack of judgment, don't want to hear the reaction, it's a trend, texting lets you say things you wouldn't say outloud (???) it's just fun

Would people like to discuss social media? How to make the best use of social media, how it can help a person find a job, or meet new people, find out new information?
So far people say Facebook creates enough questions on its own, and that social media is a great idea for a new category...
