Now we can use internet to communicate with others quickly and easily.We can use MSN,QQ,and other ways chatting with our friends instantly.Do you still like to send message through your mobile phone?And since i got my computer i have sent less messages through my phone unless my computer was not with me.It is more convenient for me to use computer to comunicate with my firends.
What is your opinion?Which way do you like:MSN,QQ,Email or phone?Do you still talk with others useing phone message one by one?

I like to communicate with others by writing more than by speaking. When I use my mobile phone, I generally send a sms. Speaking is faster than writing, but writing is clearer. When I have to call somebody, I always fear that I can't know what to say the next minute.

Hello friend,
Yes, I am from the older school and I prefer using my cell phone to send text messages, as it is much more convenient. When I am out of home and I need to text a friend, my phone is a more practical choice. Similarly, when I am in a hurry, I do not have the time to switch on my PC and then send the message.
I do not like to chat via messages as it is time consuming. I like to call the person up directly and talk out the matter.

Not really. I don't have the data package for my phone, so I can't send emails or other things through my phone. So I generally use the internet when it comes to things like instant messengers, emails and such. I do still use my text messaging, mostly when I'm not around my computer.

Due to my work situations, I spend a lot of times in front of a computer so I don't use computer for personal use that much... That's not to say I don't use my computer for entertainment purpose and/or personal reasons at all... Other than work reasons, I use emails for things aren't too important... If I have a plan on my days off, I usually email my friend just as a reminder or setting up where to meet & stuff... If I need to get in touch with someone rather quickly, then I use my phone, weather by text messaging or phone calls... I personally don't like text messaging all that much but I still use them... I do carry my laptop with me most of the times for work related reasons... But I do use my phone more frequently, especially for personal reasons...

I haven't changed since having a computer. I would have some friends that I use to chat to online, and I would have friends that I do send text messages to.
It is in the last 6 months, I have not use msn messenger much at all.

Yes the same is with me also here i prefer communicating with my friends through computer rather than cell phone via the online chatting facilities like yahoo messenger or orkut through scraps and when i have to be online with my friends i just give them a miss call so it comes as a lot of money savage. Also i use sometimes 160by2.com for sending free messages.

I still prefer to send a message through my mobile phone. I use computer to send a message to someone if a don't have a load. It much comfortable to me to use mobile phone because some of my friends don't own computer yet. In a way internet and computer can help us to locate our distant friends.

Reasons to leave mobile because of computer
**Its easier to type
**We type faster
*It has voice chatting though using a mobile you can call but its more fun on a computer
*It has more gui(graphic user interface) features
*it has tons of smileys , audibles ,themes and much more!
*Video Chatting (with faster speeds than mobiles)
** SCREEN SIZE(major reason)
*sending a sms is not like chatting where you get your answers instantly
*your emails are more customized and with a lot of pictures
Millions more!!
so its fun on the computer than on the mobile

Hi yinmm007!
When i am in front in my computer i seldom responds to text messages unless it is a call , what i do is ask him/her if its possible to come online so we can just talk via YM. To communicate online is more convenient, easy to use and not time-consuming, so i rather use my computer to communicate whenever i am online.

i still used my cellphone to send messages. Cellphones now a days are wifi ready so even if you don't have your computer, you can used your cellphone to sed emails, surf and send sms to a person who is using computer. Even updating your facebook and friendster. so instead of bringing your laptop with you, just used your cellphone. Still cellphone is most frequently used for sending sms.
