Question of the Day, November 4, 2010

[sunburst]

Mostly texting. It's quick, easy and convenient. Was it not included as an option because it's the obvious winner?

 

[Anacortian]

Voice over a phone is not yet obsolete.

 

[The Escapist Staff]

Nothing beats the good ol' phone to me.

 

[The Great JT]

It's called the telephone. It's probably the biggest innovation of the last 150 years (I say "probably" because video games, the automobile and the television were all invented in the last 150 years as well).

 

[brunothepig]

Texting, or facebook. For the most part. Also Steam chat.

 

[z3rostr1fe]

A combination of those choices, except video chat, ventrilo and email.

 

[Eumersian]

If my schedule wasn't eaten up by too many classes, I would hang out with them more often. So I have to facebook.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

Face to face and Face-Book is the way I usually do it.

 

[ArcanaJ]

Must it be just one? How about "many of the above"?

 

[The_root_of_all_evil]

Where's the option for telepathy?

I've sent you where to post.

And edited it. Sorry.

 

[Bloodastral]

Text because my Iphone is a friend too.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Wait wait wait...this poll assumes I have friends outside of the internet.

 

[Gildan Bladeborn]

Wait wait wait...this poll assumes I have friends outside of the internet.

Exactly! Apart from the members of my gaming group (where sitting down to play D&D is basically the only thing we ever do together[footnote]With the notable exception of our party wizard, whom I see and interact with quite a bit more often because he happens to be my father.[/footnote]), all my "friends" are internet friends, and our method of communication is typically whatever venue precipitated our initial interaction (forums, in-game chat, etc). I'm practically a recluse outside of school and work (which are the same place, as I work at a school).

 

[bam13302]

Steam, or google voice, usually steam

 

[Fortuan]

is by phone so unpopular i had to use that? also PSN

 

[Cracktopus]

All you need is Steam, baby.

 

[Aurora219]

Uh. phone?

 

[Sennz0r]

Out of the available options: Face to face. Usually I use my phone to call my friends up and set up meetings. If I don't have a person's number, I email them. If I don't have their email, then and only then do I resort to their Facebook accounts.

 

[PanicxBoss]

Text message.
