It's easier than texting because it's free and you can type more. Why don't I phone, you may well ask. Well, I'm not very good on the phone, even with people I know. I hate calling someone or being called because you have little time to think if someone asks you to do something - it's a very on-the-spot, snap decision thing. I suppose I'm a procrastinator and prefer the one-sidedness of Facebook where you have time to type out something clear and coherent.

There's this wonderful thing, it's only been around for 40-odd years, so you might not have heard about it before, but it's called "e-mail". Worth looking into, as it could actually be quite big one day.

I still email people as well...

Haha, why use Facebook for that kind of correspondence then? E-mail's much nicer!

Because everybody else close to me, apart from my family who don't have it, uses Facebook more than emails. Emails are just the same really, so I use them interchangeably where possible. But most of the time, it's Facebook because everybody else uses it.

But you could get them using e-mail?

I'm just being picky now.

I could, but I won't. I'm not very good with persuasiveness, or arguments.

No paul! Stop it!

Easy enough to add me if you want too

I'm finding it easier to contact some of my friends via Facebook then their email address these days. I find it extremely annoying to send an email and get a response back a few days later when I could Facebook message someone and they respond that day.

Not as good as being known as the guy with a beer glass in his face.

We still use pigeons over here.

We don't really btw Curt

Just large parcels eh?

Absolutely!

But I will say that one thing pigeons are still much better at than the internet is delivering large parcels.
Pigeons and extremist Muslims.

I get around that myself by putting up Blythe pics. Sorry you disapoint you all but I'm not really 1ft high and made of plastic with "Made in China" stamped on my bum.
