Spokeswoman Michelle LaFrance said: It is fascinating to see
people gravitate toward social media as an accepted form of
communication. The time we spend connecting via mobile devices,

interaction because they can be used anytime, anywhere.
Regardless of how people connect, they can use social media as a
way to maintain real-life friendships. The online world allows
them to share good news, plan events with friends, and stay in
touch.
