I used to keep up a Myspace account, but it sort of fell out of favor with my friends when the whole Facebook fad came along. I literally had to be forced to make a Myspace, chances are I will never be making a Facebook. XD

Besides, MSN and the old tried-and-true cellphone conversations are enough to keep my friends and I together.

I rarely use my phone, and when I do it's only to talk to my parents when they are out of town.
Sometimes I might call my friends if I haven't talked to them in weeks, but usually I forget it exists by then.

As far as I know, I haven't received a text in months. Great social life, no?

I used to text 24/7 when I was like, in grade school and as a freshman. then my parents got me unlimited texting and I kinda stopped texting all the time. I don't use the phone in general as much, I only get texts when my friends need to reach me and I only speak with friends who I haven't talked to in a while.

it may be an age thing? I know that freshman/sophomores are on their phones religously where as no one in my class has gotten caught with a phone in a long time.

I type really slow on my phone, like 1 number/letter every five seconds. I know people who can get 2 letters a second. D:

That's completely different from when I was still in High School...people got caught all of the time with their cell phones, in every grade level. They also annoyed me with that stupid mosquito ringtone (that thing hurts my ears).

XD I was already too old to hear that when that was introduced(but just barely-I could hear a faint murmur, but that was it). I suppose it would have been interesting to hear that going off all day during school, XD.

I really hate that ringtone where a Indian guy keeps saying "Pick up the {blurt}ing phone." and it constantly gets louder and louder until of course, someone picks it up just before he starts swearing constantly off.

Thank god they banned it though at school.

I put my cell phone on vibrate just so when I got a call I wouldn't have my phone taken away or get a dirty look from the teacher. I still keep it on vibrate because I can actually hear it quite well even if I don't feel it =P

I always put it on vibrate, considering that all the songs on my phone suck (In my opinion at least).
The only time I don't use vibrate is whenever I have to, by that I mean when I can't feel the vibration.

I can type like 50 words a minute on my phone. It isn't healthy how fast I can type on that thing.

Sometimes I wonder why people can't learn how to type fast on the keyboard. I've seen tons of people who can type fast on their phone, and yet they type terribly slow on the computer. Although, I guess I should take it into consideration that I type terribly on a phone, but that may be due to extreme lack of not using it. I could probably type fast if I ever had the need to and practiced enough, though.

People who can type faster on their phone usually have their phone out, typing on it, more than they are on the computer. But if they don't, then they're just lazy and don't want to take the time to learn how to type faster. Which woudl ave them time, if you think about it...

Every since I got it, my phone's been on vibrate. Not for the same reason as you, but because I despise people knowing I'm talking to someone else while I'm in their company and because having Chris Brown singing in the middle of English class isn't necessarily looked on as an educational experience.

I dunno. If it wasn't for Kayashi and his banner making skills, I'd still have a Farfetch'd accompanying my posts.

It's not really fair to say someone should be fast at typing on the keyboard if he's able to text at lightning speed; we're not talking about two things that are exactly like each other (unless you have one of those modern business phones that has a keyboard instead of the usual digit buttons). I only use my phone for calling people; so I'm terribly slow at texting. I'm always on the computer though, so my typing speed is pretty fast. It's not a question of being good at one to be good at both, really.
'It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments . . . nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.'

I have a touch screen keybord on my phone so thats all well and good...problem is its an "azerty" key board so i end up sending a load of nonsense to people
Do you, perhaps, mean to say a 'QWERTY' keyboard?
