social networks are the new email

according to this article on the bbc website social networks are becoming email 2.0 with people using the status update facilities on sites such as facebook or twitter instead of emailing. Whilst I don't think these sites will ever be as useful as traditional email for business, I'm probably like many others who now rarely send an email to friends, tending to direct message through facebook or twitter.

As more & more micro blogging platforms appear it will be interesting to see what the dominant sites are in 3 years time.
