When you want to reach someone, and face-to-face is not an option, and assuming he/she can be reached by any of these ways, how would you do it? Do you use email, phone call, text msg, a social networking tool, fax, telegram, IM, snail mail, virtual world, or ____ ?
Currently, my preference is like this:
1. If the person is on Facebook, I'll send them a msg there.
2. If I can find the person's email within 5 seconds, I will email them (e.g. email system must have auto-complete as I type their name).
3. IM
4. Send them a text msg
5. Call them
6. If I couldn't find their email in 5 seconds, then as a last resort, I will try to dig up their email addy.
