Tweeting, blogging, texting. Remember when we just talked to each other??

To begin the interview process I asked the participants how often per week they used texting as their contacting method. All of the participants replied that they used texting all day everyday and could not provide me with a ball park number of texts per week because texting is used so frequently in their daily lives.

I followed up this question with asking how often per week they used calling as their contacting method and all participants answered that they use calling a few times throughout the day to contact those in their social network, but calling is used far less than texting on a daily basis. I found that calling was used mainly for work purposes or necessary long conversations on a daily basis.
