texting vs. voice calls???

in todays world, 31% of american adults between the ages of 18 and 24 prefer to text than to call and talk to somebody. the young adults (again between ages 18 and 24) exchange about an average of 110 texts a day and about 3200 a month. whereas it is doubled more than the average of adults from the ages 25-34 and over 23 times the figure of people 65 and older!
55% people who exchange about 51 texts a day report peferring to call the person and see whats up with them instead of using there fingers for an hour when they can talk over the phone for 5 minutes. but on the otherhand, texting is more brief especially if you're pressed for time and you need the date of a party. texting also helps the aid of if you're somewhere noisy and u cant talk to someone you can jsut text. a plus aboout texting is that when you get a text you can finish your task before responding (such as parking your car) and you can also think about what you wanna say before your good coversation can go bad

rss feeds

an RSS feed allows the latest news and updates to be sent to your reader account. this will be useful to me so because with this i wont have to keep looking for updates on the websites i am following.

delicious blog

delicious is a bookmarking website to store all of your favorite websites and all other websites you may wanna keep on there instead of the back of your mind

i believe this website is very useful to me. i have many important websites that instead of writing down i just use delicious.

i'll be using it mostly in school to save websites that i may need for projects and other sources. in my personal life on the other hand, i probably will not use it because i wont ever need to store any websites

technology and me

the only tecnology i really use is jusy my phone,computer and my tv. i mainly use my phone because im never home because im too busy workin , hunting or fishing. but otherwise technology is in my life all day everyday. facebook is probably the only social networking website i use.. depending on the day i might use it 0-5 times. i carry my phone with me all day and thats basically my only technology source i use.
