This does make sense but I'd like to see statistics that are more demographically based. For example, I am sure if you looked at most people between 15-30 you would find more of them spend their time on Facebook than sending emails. In fact, that is how I usually connect with my Facebook friends unless I need to give them attachments. I think this is an interesting set of charts but they might be changing.
