Voice mail in the age of texting
Filed Under communication
Doghouse Diaries sums up a common frustration with voice messages — it takes a lot of time to often receive a little amount of information.
Personally, I’d rather receive a text or email message than a voice mail message. It’s usually quicker and easier to read a message than it is to dial in and listen to a message. With services such as Google Voice and others, transcription of voice messages is a reality, even if it is not completely on point just yet.
A couple of minutes here and there adds up if someone receives lots of voice messages.

I am not sure if I agree with your post here. See you do make the best point, I don’t think you have actually given a large amount of thought to the opposite side of the argument. Perhaps I could do a guest post or a follow-up, just tell me.
Hi Dudy,
You could always leave a comment here with your counter point. I’m always willing to listen to all sides. Convince me that a voice message on a cell phone is more efficient than a text message.
