Email is old school

In our house we have 2 teenagers, 14 and 18. Both of them skipped email, and that just makes me dizzy.

They use their cellphones for instant messaging and they can type out complete messages while never looking at the screen, however, neither one of them can type very well on a full keyboard.

This is just amazing. We now have a generation of kids who think email is old school. Instant communication is a fact of life for them. One of the downsides to this is going to be the quality of the written word. In just a few short years it will be impossible to read most handwriting and we will also have twice as many words to use as before as they continue to improvise and shortcut at every turn.
