For anyone

I am mobile

According to Joosten (2009), 71% of students want to receive text messages about their class (http://tinyurl.com/yafu8qz).

According to PEW Interent, “the

typical American teen sends and receives 50 or more messages per day, or 1,500 per month.”

I *do* use social media – A LOT

According to Bulik (July 8th, 2009) “…They

go to social networking sites 5 days per week and check in 4 times a day for a total of an hour per day” (para 7).

According to PEW Internet study, “…

Nearly three-quarters (72%) of online 18-29 year olds use these sites–similar to the rate among teens–with 45% doing so on a typical day” (http://tinyurl.com/33hynyx).
