Ok, Now i agree with what you are saying cause i myself have had conversations with people that i could never have with them face to face, which then at times made it ocward when i ran into them inperson. But its not like people are going to just be like ok i agree and stop using it!!!
Ok, i totally get what you are say, really i do. But i can't say i totally agree. When I'm at home, I live on the internet IMing people. One, because I usually forget what homework i had so i use it to ask people. And two, cuz i get to talk to my friends outside of school. It's so much better than a phone because you can talk to like 7 different people all at once from all over. I get what you mean by saying by misunderstanding and stuff like that. In fact, I lost a great friendship with one of my (now ex) bestfriends because she didn't get the whole picture of what I was saying (but that's a story for a different day). But at the same time, I've made so many friends with Instant Messenger. I meet my friends' friends and then if we meet up in person (with the middleman of course) it's not awkward because it's like we've known each other for a while. Overall, I think there are more pros than cons with IMs

(sorry if it sounds like I've over reacting or going to far on the defense, I haven't had a good afternoon)
Don't you love how people will have conversations through IMing and then save and print out a copy so all their friends at school can read...people are crazy..we live in a crazy world..we need to change it!! Oh yeah, and i'll buy the book too.
