Correctly, that should read "fewer" than 4%. But grammar aside, that's unbelievable. I guess 96% of people just don't care whether they have a secure login or not. My most secure password belongs to my World of Warcraft account. Oh shoot, I'd better go change it. >.>

I used to text with mostly full words (predictive), with a few exceptions (eg. 2 for to, too and two); now the same holds true for emailing from my phone. But my main amount of electronic writing is in typing online: forum comments, etc. This means that I am writing in full sentences, continuing to exercise all of my grammar and spelling skills. When it comes to writing with a pen, which I do every day (I have kept a diary since I was 16), I haven't noticed a decline in my grammar or spelling at all. I guess with automatic spellcheckers and such people can be inculcated to rely on automatic correction or mistakes highlighted for them; as of now, I haven't been affected by this, and I can't see myself slipping anytime soon. If anything, my writing skills improve year by year: including the the ways in which I express myself. It's important to note that perfect, essay-style grammar is not the be all and end all of communication. So long as you express what you wish to say: with the variations in the ways that people express themselves through various media, then a slip here and there isn't going to cause you to lose your ability to communicate. ;)
