[quote=Anonymous]I think people are so busy these days that unless something is urgent or an emergency, it is easier for both parties to simply send a message out vs. calling them on the phone. In fact - I see phone calling (as a way to communicate) on its way out in the near future, excluding of course time-sensitive situations. Not only are many people busier these days than before > but I think many people do not like being “bothered” w/having to be drawn into small talk w/others. I am 54 & can remember as a young child when neighbors + friends would just stop by our house w/o calling first and they would stay and chat. I think many people felt put out by random visits which is why nowadays that type of behavior is considered rude. I think the same mode of thinking will drive “random” phone calling to be seen this very same way.[/quote]
