[p2p-research] Fwd: "Networking in Everyday Life" - information overload

[Michel Bauwens]

Same for me ... email is the most reliable way for me to do anything ... I
never give my mobile, but that of my wife <g>, as an extra filter ... I
respond to IM, but never initiate ..

I have noticed quite a few people who use facebook as primary though, these
people are unreachable by email mostly, but always respond to facebook
