I am not sure, my phonecalls mostly are all about business. I made 3 calls everyday on average. I seldom phone my family members but I always chat with my college friends via phone. I don't use QQ often, the frequence is about once a month. My favorite IM software is MSN, because my company forbid QQ, sometimes I use ICQ or Skype. Happy mylotting, I love China.

i rarely use the phone. i probably use the phone on an average of once a day. only to call my girlfriend. other than that, maybe use the phone to call any offices. i just dont understand how people literally spend all day on the phone. i get tired of being on the phone for just 30 minutes.

Hi! Thank you for your response. I also like useing mobilephone to call my boyfriend ,especially on campus because we study in different universitise.The longest time I spent on phone is almost 2 hours talking with my boyfried.If I do not carry the phone for a day on camus, I do not feel comfortabele,because I feel that I lose the tool to connect my friends and feel loney.When at home,I seldom use the mobilephone because I can connect my friends through Internet which is cheaper.Best wishes to you .

I think I only make 1 to 2 phone calls everyday, just to call my mom and my husband, I only call my husband when I have got something urgent or important to tell him; I call my mom to talk on the phone with her. Other than that, I don't call anybody.

Hi sylvia, interesting discussion which make me ponder for awhile. Looks like now I hardly make outgoing phonecalls due to the convenience of sms (text messaging services, safer and cheaper...the person can check the message at his convenience..it is dangerous to pick up phone and talk while driving, it can be fine/summoned too!). I only call out when it is urgent that I need to know the response immediately. With emails, chat and facebooks... we can communicate anything that is not so important.. with our family and friends. It is a good way to keep in touch and fun too. They are free :) In addition, talking too much on the mobile phone is bad for health due to magnetic wave. Do not use mobile phone while you are charging your handphone or whilst during rainy day/lightning... I do make a phone call or two to my father coz he is old and do not have handphone and not IT savour....on average I will be making 2-3 phone calls a day. All the best and Happy myLotting!

Hi,Iriene!Thank you for your response and thank you for your advice.I also like to use texting during holiday which is cheap and convenient.We have to pay money for every minute if we make phonecalls though it is quicker in some cases. I think you are a very filial person.Hapy mylotting.

I make calls to my husband twice every day, once to my son, once to both my sister in laws, once to my mother in law and then occassionally to my cousins and other friends. So on an average Id say seven calls daily, and then if I have to say something, then of course other calls too. Calls are made to keep in touch and to relay messages. As for chatting with friends, I dont have many and limit my calls to them.

I make many phonecalls every day. I have three sisters. We call each other to send greetings, exchange news, and make appointments for going out. Every day I would call my grandson. Hearing his voice is my daily routine, even for just a few minutes.

On average I probably only receive and make about 2-3 days. For me phone calls aren't efficient. Instead being a young adult texting is the new thing because its a way you can talk to people when they are in environments where talking on the phone isn't the best option and it is a lot more private while in public. I think nowadays its mostly older adults that still slide more towards phone calls than anything else.

Hi! Thank you for your response. I also make 2 or 3 phonecalls on average everyday,most of which I make to my boyfriend,because we live a little far.Yes,texting is popular among yougers and more private in public and easy to let others konw something that you dare not to say,but maybbe texting sometimes is a little slow and maybe misunderstood.Actually,many youngers are inclind to use both phonecalls and texting.Happy mylotting.

I make on average a total of two calls a day. I use to call people all the time. Now since all my friends and family have internet. We talk on the internet. I have found it is easier than in person sometimes to talk on the internet.

Hi!Thank you for your response.Yes,talking on the Intenet is convenient and cheaper since we do not have to pay money for the call.There is something that we dare not to say in person sometimes,then Internet helps a lot.Besides,there are a lot of emoticons on the Internet which can help us express our emotion and feelings.I also like talking to my friends on the Internet.Best wishes to you and happy mylotting.

On average I probably make three to four phone calls everyday. Most of the calls I make are to my friends. That average might just increase a bit in weeks where we have a lot of assignments and projects and things like that. I live with my family so theres no need to make a lot of calls to them. Having a phone is really handy, it comes to good use in emergencies and when your bored.

I am a stay at home mom and my kids are only eight and ten and my husband works in a restaurant so I can't call him so I am lucky if I make one phone call a day. I am not crazy about talking over the phone any how, I think I would rather send an email or a written letter before I would call someone. Now I do have people that call me like my mom and a few friends but I rarely call them. I would say I personally make maybe 2 phone calls a week and although some may think that is nuts I actually like it that way. I have always said that if I didn't have to have a phone for emergencies and such I wouldn't have one.
