Julian,
Good synopsis, but Tom's OC list was ~2 decades ago; so, if may
10-finger math still works, you joined as a teenager. Glad you have
stuck it out!

That's a really interesting observation. I also live in a major US city and
work for a very large corporation, and while I do use SMS on occasion, 99%
of my written communication (sent and received) is still via e-mail. I have
a big concern with security of SMS for anything more sensitive than "we're
in conference room 6."
It's all about finding the right tool for the job. SMS is a great tool to
have, but I think many have a tendency to use new tools as golden hammers
rather than finding the most appropriate problems for them to solve.
For reference, I'm 28.

Quite correct. The world is changing the way it talks to itself. Big time.
Quickly.
I live in a major US city and work for a large
corporation. I can share with you that in the last 12 months, SMS texting
is
now standard in business. Email is not dead and it will never die ( I
think!)
but it is clearly on the decline. In my experience in my world. Here,
everybody texts. If you send someone an email, you have to text them and
let them know they have an email in their Inbox. Because they never check
it. It ain't just kids anymore, sad to say.
You almost define your age by how you communicate. Someone joked with
me the other day that landlines and email are for "people over 50."
Sheesh.
If you want to propose marriage and express your undying love for
someone, you have to do it in less than 160 characters.....
