This presentation does not represent reality. It is what Facebook wants us to believe. I see Facebook now becoming the new self appointed God of Social media and using their dominance to try and influence both their existing Facebook and the non Facebook audience to believe that e-mail is dead. I don’t buy into this thinking for one second. Because teenagers don’t use e-mail? Is Facebook saying this because they need more people to communicate using Facebook to maintain their dominance? This is really reaching to make a point.

email is person to person, that like speech can never go away.
blogs are person to many-persons sometimes like shouting at the beech

it is desirable to filter email, make it more productive and personal, but it can never go away

Come on, that was a tiny comment on her speach, not the center of it.
She said that only 11% of today's teenagers are using email on a daily basis, and that percentage will probably apply to future email users. Only 11% of them will use it on a DAILY BASIS.

Right now "email's" success is relying on desktop applications – email clients, IM clients – that notify you about a new email.

Would it be that hard to believe that a new type of desktop app – let's call it "Social Client" – will take it's place?
All is needed is a new trend, and a cool marketing term, and email as we know it is gone.
It will probably be replaced by something similar – an all-in-one package with email, profile, microblog, blog.
They are allready doing it, they just haven't found a clever way to rename it and market it.

[...] "In consumer technology, if you want to know what people like us will do tomorrow, you look at what teenagers are doing today, and the latest figures say that only 11% of teenagers email daily. So email (I can’t imagine life without it) is probably going away. So what do teenagers do? They SMS and increasingly they use social networking." (hat tip to WebGuild.org) [...]

Of course email won't go away! Will radio go away? Of course not. Can u imagine if email had to die, that would be the death of everyone making money online also, simply because it's one of the main methods of making money online? Without an email list how will online marketers and promoters make a living?

I think she's not being REALISTIC!

The video has her saying: "Only 11% of teens email daily. I can't imagine life without it but email is probably going away"

Umm… "email is probably going away" isn't quite "email is dead"…

Did you watch the video?
"Only 11% of teens email daily. I can't imagine life w/o it but email is probably going away"

I guess you didn't waste your time to watch the video.
