Marshelltown/Ames, IA USA I like using the phone a lot, but I would have to say that I prefer using e-mail... it's easier to reach a bunch of people at the same time, and sometimes it's easier to express a thought or feeling if you can type it instead of say it. Jeremy, 14
Highlands Ranch, CO USA email, then face to face, then writing. I hate to talk on the phone. Felicia, 35
Lowell, MA USA I enjoy the internet email and writing letters for communication. I can say things better in writing than I might say in speaking. Though I am sincere in what ever I write or say. It is just easier in writing to tell my feelings etc. Marci, 56
Diamond, OH USA This really depends on who I'm communicating with. If I'm talking to someone I like, then I'd like to talk to them face-to-face. If I'm talking to someone I don't like, then I'd like it to be in an e-mail or a letter or and IM or something. Eric, 19
Beverly Hills, CA USA I love the internet! I love chatting with people online because I get a chance to think about what I'm saying before I actually send the message. But in person is always the best, I'd take that over anything. After those two is the phone. Dianne, 16
Ontario CANADA I like writing and sign language. I find it easier to communicate in writing, and I prefer the expressiveness of sign language. I am, however, most fluent in spoken English. When writing I tend to fuss with grammar and diction to the point of overkill. etoile, 20

Brampton, Ontario CANADA 5 hour phone conversation when we both should be fast asleep. (quote derived from Train's "Drops of Jupiter" Anjel, 20 E-Mail. You have time to think out what you are saying, but it does not take a long time to arrive at it's destination. You also hear back quicker if the respondant is regular on E-Mail. Deb

Gahanna, OH

Verbal. I absolutely HATE the telephone with all my heart. Unless it' with my best friend, I run out of things to say and I act differently when talking to people over the phone. Plus, it always rings when I'm watching something good on tv. IM's can get annoying if I just want to surf the net for a while. Nothing's better than talking to people face to face.
