Mark de la Vina at Sun Herald Mercury News (www.sunherald.com) has written a wicked piece about the changing nature of the modern courtship ritual.
A doctoral student in neuropsychology at San Jose State University, [Michelle] Fontana used to give her phone number to an interested suitor. Now she prefers exchanging e-mails to establish communication. If she likes what she reads, she suggests talking via Yahoo messenger or her cell phone.
You know what? I do this too. Mark’s article is definitely worth a read to keep track of changing trends. Well, to be accurate, I think it’s useful to read to verify the changing trends. A lot of people I speak to don’t quite believe how ingrained the use of text messaging, email and instant messenger already is.
