Teens: E-Mail Is For Old People

Excerpts: For some schools, the correct answer is: set up a MySpace 
page. After all, there's nothing hipper for students than being 
"friends" with your college registrar or school principal. The 
intriguing thing about this method of reaching students is that it's 
most often not "instant" at all; students receive messages when they log 
in or they visit the school's MySpace pages - the equivalent of using 
e-mail and a Web portal.
