    I don't really have much to text. I used to talk to my friend over text because Facebook was cumbersome, but after I lost service that kind of stopped altogether, especially after her completely blowing off half of my texts. Now that's she's off of FB I really have nothing better to do than manage editors for our ROTC battalion's Facebook page.

    Pretty much the only things that matter to me right now are PC and ROTC. Everything else is stuck in a void of chaos, of which some issues have been arising as of late (think: nightmares and anxiety attacks).

    I don't have unlimited texts so I really try to keep it to when I have to get in touch with family. I find it a LOT more tedious than typing anyway, so when I want to get in touch with a friend I will use skype (unless I'm not home, then I might text).

    I'm on facebook but I don't really use it, I only browse through when I'm pretty bored. The arguments on there can be pretty hilarious to watch though hehe.

    What's tedious about texting is when auto-correct is turned on. I type much faster and more efficiently without it >>;; And I'm the same with Facebook, but most of the time I'm using it to communicate with Dipu :P

    I rarely text people, unless there's no other option. Personally, I prefer IMing over anything. :P I used to have Facebook, but deleted it years ago. Didn't exactly need it, since those who I kept in contact over there were already reachable via Skype, AIM, MSN, etc.

    AIM, maybe. Can't be completely sure, though; it's been a while since I last used it. As for MSN, I have absolutely no idea at all.

    I use facebook's messenger app, and regular texts, and... Yeah, that's pretty much it 8) Occasionally I log into Skype, but that's way too seldom as I don't communicate with "real life" people there, only online ones. Which I meet daily on PC anyways.

    I avoid Facebook like the plague...My aunts and mom flood the timeline with the most useless junk.

    I'm on your side too, my mother is so addicted to Facebook she is actually the main cause behind me having those "inactive for a day" moments when my computer is getting fixed or replaced, and sadly I am without a computer right now because well... it died.

    Sharing a computer with a greedy Facebook addict is no fun I gotta say, it means I can't be at my usual activity.

    Yeah, my mother is a facebook addict too. What is there even to do there anymore, except for chatting it up with your mates? Are there still game apps for facebook or?

    FarmVille still exists, so yes...game apps still exist. xD

    I just check on how my family and close friends are doing. haha, and I'm always invisible on chat. Whenever I get online I always get bombarded with IMs xD

    I have three notifications at this moment from three people inviting me to play Candy Crush Saga.

    That's weird! I type a lot better with it on. Most of the time I end up tapping letters that are next to the ones that I actually want and 9/10 my iPhone will correct it to the word I wanted, just like magic. I text a lot. If you're around me you'll hear my phone chiming an awful lot! I'd rather text than talk on the phone, I normally find it awkward.

    I use auto-correct to correct certain things and it does a great job for the most part. However, I do not think anything ducking sucks and I hate when it corrects to that.

    I text a lot too and my phone usually corrects a TON of my errors... if I didn't have it you wouldn't be able to read anything ;;

    I have turned off auto-correct on my iPhone. It just got so annoying when it corrected wrongly :p I usually spot my few mistakes and can correct them myself. If I want to bother.
