- Hubski comment

- WhatsApp message to my sister

- Facebook chat to various people

- Discord chat to some people from the Internet

- Phone call to some people when I was going out (Soho was so busy for Halloween!) - I hardly ever use a telephone like this

- Real life verbal communication

- Slack chat with my co-workers to discuss work stuff

The thing I find is that I have a lot of services that provide the same thing (instant messaging) but I use them to talk to different people. It just happens that certain people I know have adopted one medium and certain others have adopted another. The other forms of communication I have listed here can't really be replaced with each other.
