Email - staying or going away debate vs Social Media

I continue to find it interesting when I see various pundits, or more frequently those with a vested position supported by the claim, claiming email will be dead. Granted we are users and believers in email as a company, but we continue to work with more and more companies and organizations making sure email, social media. online efforts and offline are all integrated.  None is the silver bullet all by their self. Leveraging and planning strategic campaigns with all continue to prove the be the most successful.

I am curious as to what the readers think on this topic that email is going away and it is all about social media. Interesting story on statements made by Facebook COO, Sheryl Sandberg, at a Nielsen event. See comments in this article covering this mistaken position.
