The gazillion dollar question…

While websurfing this morning, I stumbled upon the following…

…but really, who uses e-mail anymore when you could 1) use the P-H-O-N-E, or 2) Hello? Instant Messenger?!?

Elementary! My dear What神s. Phone is much more invasive (get this into ur peabrains, u telemarketites). IM is for something quick that could be handled in a jiffy. Email is for something that might take a little more time or thoughts to look after; which today’s kids don’t seem to have a grasp on.

So the next time you want a favor, don’t call me nor IM me during month-end; or it would just be deliberately ignored.

    Yes, but “In Korea, Email Is Only For Old People”:http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/11/30/0034259&tid=215&tid=95&tid=1.

    Yeah well, some aggressive salesperson might, but over my dead body before I’d give out my IM/SMS ID to my clients/customers. It is enough hassle dealing with spam email and spam calls, I’d change my cellphone number or re-register another IM account if I start receiving non-personal messages. More over, I would not do anything of any importance which were communicated via IM/SMS. If it’s not through a phone call with a confirmed identity, it’s either not important, a fake or a scam.
