This one I never quite understood. I could bet five bucks all of your extended family on facebook has email addresses. Facebook seems indispensable in finding the people you're after, but maintaining contact doesn't seem to require it. Or is it their updates posted to the entire world that you're after?

Of course you can still contact them, but it will be harder and people will include you less in their conversations. Whatsapp does a lot more than what regular sms does, including working video calls across platforms, working multi-person chats with file attachments, etc. Don’t say e-mail does this, it doesn’t, as you will need more than a phone number that you already have. Here everybody asumes that you have it, if you don’t, you’re on your own. As an example, my communication with my car insurance company over an incident I’ve recently had is happening over Whatsapp.
