Love Love Love this post!

What is interesting for me regarding the instant messaging type software lately is the uptake by young people.
My 10 years old daughter much prefers to finish a conversation on the phone early with her little mates to get on instant messenger. (don't judge me pp, I am right beside her when she does it).
I think it may because she can talked to loads of people at once instead of one friend?? Any theories Zack? We had to learn how to use these platforms but the next gen will feel like they always had them and they are our future.

It will be very interesting to see how she is in 10 years with these platforms.
