In Tallahassee, they sent out a text to their Breaking News sub group looking for a connection. A father of a local girl responded.

I can speak much faster than I can type (so can most humans) on a phone and the response time is zero, unlike waiting for a text reply. If they like "instant gratification," texting isn't the way.

The only calls they get are from their parents. You are right about texting becoming the way these future demo's in waiting are and will learn about breaking news.
