Why waste your time on e-mail? Now, you can be in another place, visiting or working and people will know your there by your status in social media. Because of social media, you can communicate a more personalized message to someone with exactly what you want to tell them (besides your location and what you are doing) without having to “catch up”. So social media with all of its various intense frequent communications also allows you to tell very important, targeted messages without any preliminaries or all of the extra “fluff”.

According to Nielson, in August 2009, 276.9 million people used email across the U.S., several European countries, Australia and Brazil, according to Nielsen Co., up 21% from 229.2 million in August 2008. But the number of users on social-networking and other community sites jumped 31% to 301.5 million people.
