Actually, I disagree entirely. Email is on the way out. Comscore recently surveyed Y/Y usage of Webmail and except for Baby Boomers, all generations were down in email usage – with 12-17 year olds down 59%. But let's not argue over facts: How about just personal experience? How many of your readers (like me) spend time every morning UNSUBSCRIBING from junk mail (and just incessant and too-frequent mail from companies we do like) because email is becoming the avenue for "critical" communications only. Other venues – Twitter, YouTube, Yelp, QR codes, text marketing, etc- are becoming preferred ways to get "ads" from trusted companies. Email is definitely declining, if at the very least, in my own personal inbox.

Not if you are a professional in the business sector. Email communication is essential, and I increase my use of it constantly. I agree with this article in that I am also utilizing other tools. For the personal user, I can see how it might decline if you only use the email to stay in contact with people.
