What’s your favorite way to keep in touch? Phone, snail mail, email, text message, Vox, _____ ?

I find myself using IM most of the time for my day-to-day “keeping in touch” requirements. A lot of my friends I’ve never actually met in person anyway. Ahhh, the wonders of the Internet. Anyway, I’m generally less shy through a text based medium than I am face to face or on the telephone.

Real life conversations need to have a delete key. The best thing about IM is that you can start to say something and then realize it sounds completely stupid and scrap the whole thing without having to explain why you scrapped it. It’s a nice little safety buffer.

That’s not to say I’m totally IM, I do engage in phone conversations at times, and some people I do meet on Teamspeak when we’re playing games together and I guess that’s kinda like a phone.

I don’t text message a lot, generally only use that to recieve severe weather reports and stuff.
