The future of communication lasts only a few years. Email became popular in the early '90's, cutting into the market shares of snail mail and telephone. Neither disappeared, and then the cell phone cut into the market share of the land line phone.
The land line installation rate is in reverse, but is not disappearing.
Only 75% of the US population uses a PC or Mac on a daily basis, and that growth curve has flattened.
What we're witnessing is a proliferation of communication tools, not a consolidation into a single tech funnel. The communication universe continues to be sub-divided, even as it expands.

i'll prolly be in! because in years to come, i believe everyone will be connected to people through the internet. and even to people whom you don't even know! miscellaneous adding your friends and mine… then it continues from there.

I probably is out because I'm never been using such communicators before. Anyway, thanks for sharing the information.
