And texting, why do people willfully choose not to text? its so freaking easy and convinient to get quick messages and coordinates to people. sure beats the hmms and haaahs of a phone call.
Now that said, if something is urgent or you want to make sure there is no misunderstanding, pick up the damn phone of course.
ok ... so on my blackberry, clients, friends, family, vendors, basically anyone who i may need to be in contact with, i have BBM, MSN, Yahoo, and Google talk and I use them all.
Whats the problem with that? Why do some people say, no i only use BBM for work. How about those who have a Blackberry, but refuse to use BBM? Why even have a BB, you might as well get an Android or iPhone if you arent going to use BBM.
Dont get me wrong, its not like I spend 24 hours a day sending unneeded mindless texts. But its a frikkin awesome tool, why not use it?
Look, I can understand if they are trying to not be in contact with you, but thats not the case. its just that they dont want to text.
also, i answer every email within 10 minutes. every email. (unless i just miss one, which happens). why do some people decide they dont have time. thats BS to me. its just a choice.
how hard is it to get an email and reply "Hey Jim, I will have a look at this tomorrow when I am back from my sales trip". I hate the blackhole of no reply. Its rude frankly.
Whatever, my final word ... people embrace your smart phone and get connected! your entire commercial and social world runs through it and its only going to be come even more a focus.
end rant.
