Connector
According to Pew, I’m a Connector. Or, as we say it around here, I’m a Connecta.

I was baffled at not being an Omnivore - it’s really, really hard to use more technology than I do, or at least, so I had thought. So I gamed the survey - if you max out technically on all other questions, you still need either to have a webcam or send instant messages on your phone. Pew dudes, I have an iPhone - I send e-mail on my phone.
Fah. It’s ageism, pure and simple. E-mail is for old folks, you know, IM for kids.

My wife has noticed that high school students can’t even be bothered to check their email. If it isn’t texted to their cell they probably won’t respond.
