Using new communication technologies

With this country being very large and mobiles not getting coverage everywhere there is other options that i use to communicate. One that i use most would be facebook. This is not by my choice but its what all my friends use and i must use this to stay in touch with them. I get random invites from old school friends and having moved away, catching up with them would not of happened if it weren't for facebook. I compete in fantasy nrl and afl dream teams against family and we chat in the forum of that site to keep in touch....... and to brag when we win! I don't mind using these technologies as its an easier way to talk. I'll always use old comunications but i believe that there is room for new ones.
