What do you prefer? Text for me hands down, I can answer when I want, change the subject easily, ignore the other party, have time to think about my responses, etc. What do you prefer and why?

Another reason is I can text from my desk and no one hears the conversation. :D

I don't like either really. The wife is a texting fool. We'll be planning a trip or event with friends. She'll be texting for weeks. I'll ask her a question, she'll text and tell me response. I'll have another question, she'll text and respond to me again. It gets to the point that I have to call, 3 minutes later all my questions are answered.
They both have their place. :)

I agree with most of what you said about texting.. But I like talking better, you learn more about the person!

Mostly talking.... But more and more, even in business, I have more people texting me then calling sometimes. I can kill my phone battery by noon most days....

Texting is definitely escalating, and becoming more common place...

I think it's more an age thing than anything here (as a rule). I notice younger people (25-30 and under) primarily text......over 55 tend to pick up the phone (as a rule) and the group in-between can go either way depending on how "Tech Savvy they are.....IMHO

It depends on my mood, but during the day, while I'm working, I would prefer texting. I would say the majority of the time these day's I'm texting, rather than talking though.

Me too, I work in a cubicle and everyone can hear if I'm talking. They don't tune in if its a buisiness call, but as soon as you have a personal call its, oh, I couldn't help but overhear...

My buddy said he wants to do an Oct trip, if so we would have plenty of room and time to get you up on wakeboard, it's a blast! Once you do it, you'll want a WB boat. ;)

It doesn't matter to me but I get so many phone calls (work), sometimes it takes me awhile to get a message, but if you text me its like you move to the front of the line, I always read and respond right away, I don't know why, just easier I guess.

Texting all the way, I always seem to loose concentration when working and talking. Texting keeps me in touch when I get a break. Bluetooth when driving though.

I do text but prefer talking. The funny thing is that more and more people are texting and it's becoming so common that my clients text me. I think that is the oddest thing, I couldn't imagine texting my dentist to cancel my appointment. :AngryFinger_7WSKJO:
