For Mass Comm. I was asked to take a look at all the media I use and how often I use it. Here are the questions I was asked to answer:

How often do you IM? Name two people on your buddy list or people you frequently chat with?
I don't IM all that often, but I usualy talk to Danielle to find out where she is and also my roommate to mess with her when she's sitting across the room. I use AIM as a locator to see where the people are I need to call.
