Email is dead for teens?
This article confirms what I have found regarding teens and email. They don't use email that much and don't even remember emails to their best friends. I don't even know the emails to all my best friends, but I do remember their IM :)
That's also why I don't have an 'email-a-friend' feature on PixPulse.
Quote from article:
"E-mail isn't dying, but it's grown a little sick. comScore Media Metrix found that in April 2006, teen e-mail use was down 8 percent from a year before. Teens are using IM and MySpace for communication with friends, but they haven't abandoned the tool—that's why 89 percent of teens who use the Internet still use e-mail, while only 75 percent use instant messaging."
