According to a study by the Pew Internet and American Life project, barely 5% of American teens aged 12 to 17 prefer e-mail over instant messaging as their digital communications method of choice. Teens view e-mail as a way to talk to "old people" or institutions like companies. Kids, it seems, prefer the immediacy and mobility of instant messaging and text messaging to e-mail, which they might some day refer to as snail mail, the same way most people over 30 refer to the U.S. Postal Service.
Also some experts say that the huge amount of spam will lead to the end of electronic mail.
How far do you agree with this?

well.. email is still important in business.
I am still sending business emails and arrange orders and stuff. It is really important as anyone in the world can communicate conveniently in written letters.
Yeah, but the SPAMs are getting annoying. It is possible.. if the SPAM becomes too much.. emails might be useless..
