I think texting is fine for chit chat, when it is appropriate. Texting is not good for in-depth conversations. However, like everyone else I like to be with people in person over anything else. Skype...just makes everything kind of weird.
I think something like a forum works well for in-dept conversations and does in its own way work so that you can get to know someone in a more intellectual way. Where as texting is shorthand, phone and in person might be too nervous or have too much on your mind to say all at once. In a forum, or slower forms of communication you can put more thought into things. Either way, people have their preferences and finding someone who is more compatible with how you like to communicate and just being able to click with them is the point.
