How shall we communicate?

One of my interests, and a reason why I’m studying web design, is how new communications technologies affect society, and how we use new com. tech to interact. The Wall Street Journal just posted this article, The End of the Email Era, on how social networks, and the “real-time” web, are supplanting email as nettizens main form of communicating online. I’ll post my thought as soon as I get a chance to read and digest.
