Wear wristwatch? Use e-mail? Not for Class of '14

<p>I’m 20yo, still use email, landline (to a limited extent), and wear a watch.</p>

<p>In high school, I realized that, compared to looking at a watch, it was a pain to be pulling out my cell phone all the time just to check the time, not to mention the lack of geometric cues. It’s also near impossible to elegantly time yourself during a phone call.</p>

<p>Email vs text might be a temporary thing. In the last decade, email has always been faster and more robust than text messages, except that cell phones had issues handling them. Text messages are an unsustainable hack onto the system. Once LTE becomes the norm and everyone uses smartphones, email will likely win over text again.</p>
