I guess I am old fashioned, I prefer talking although I am beginning to see the advantages of texting. Lately I find myself texting more and more.

I prefer texting much better.  That way I can do more things at once.

They both have their place in my life.  Texting is great if a quick questions or comment and don't know if someone is busy or I am busy and just need that bit of info.  But some topics or issue that needs more discussion, I hate texting and much prefer to have a conversation and move on with it instead of what feels like a gazillion texts where everything gets confused. 

Also, when texting I have learned not to presume anything!!!  Between misspellings and interpretations some things can get out of hand.  When someone receives text they are in the mood they are in and may not take the joke that was made etc. When talking you can hear the laughter or tones that set the mood.  So I give everyone I text with the benefit of the doubt and encourage them to do the same with me if something doesn't sit well.

since i can't text i would have to say talking. but even if i did have texting capibilities i would perfer talking because i think it is more personal. that's like sending an actual letter to someone and not an email. a written letter lets family members see the progress of a childs writing.

No preference, but some situations are just suited better for one method. I hate carrying on a conversation through text messages when it would be much easier to talk. There's also those situations that don't warrant a phone call.

I do not like to talk on the phone, and I do not like the typing part of sending a text message.
I prefer to type on a keyboard and send an email.

It honestly depends on what I'm doing and why I'm communicating.  Most of the time, I prefer texting because it's faster.  But there are times that a phone conversation makes things easier to explain and is more appropriate.
