Según el DPD se usa el voseo en "gran parte de Colombia", pero puede ser que no esté al día.

Con todos eb Colombia, quise decir la mayoría. No dudo tampoco que algunos traten de tú, pero no sabría decir en que circunstancias.

¡Jajaja! Me puedo oír a mí mismo ya:

-Por favor, no me ustedees, mi estrecho amigo.-
-¿Cóoomo?-
-¡Uf! Lo que quería decir era «no me trates de usted».-
-De acuerdo. . .-
"estrecho" tampoco puedes decirlo de un amigo. Puedes tener una estrecha amistad con alguien, pero cuando alguien es "estrecho" significa otra cosa (con ciertas connotaciones sexuales, al menos en España) . Yo diría "mi querido amigo".

¡Ayyy! Salgo del trueno sólo para dar con el relámpago
Llegue algún día . . .

Entonces, la charla revisada:

-Por favor, no me ustedees, mi estrecho amigo.-
-¿Cóoomo?-
-¡Uf! Lo que quería decir era «no me trates de usted», mi estrecho amigo.-
-¿¡¡Cómo!!?-
-uuuuh . . . ajem. Lo que realmente quería decir era «no me trates de usted, mi querido amigo.»-
-Está bien-

El voseo argentino es algo distinto. Hay varias comunidades en otros países hispanohablantes que dicen "vos" pero no usan las conjugaciones argentinas.

En Chile se usa el vos todavía, pero solo para decir tú sin la respectiva conjugación de los verbos, y solo entre amigos cuando se esta bromeando.

Es una manera muy peculiar de hablar del pueblo.

I don't think so, because usted is less used that tu, really you need to be more polite than the other people if you then mentioned a lot the word Usted, but it's most used for people, for kind to relation friendly between a group determinate.

I mean, I can say you. Como cres tu instead of Como cres usted.

Which you believe that sound more nature?

I hope you can take in mind my commentary.

I have been reading the archived posts from a Spanish language learning blog. This one reminded me of this thread, so I thought I'd share it here.

At least in Chile is not used anymore in formal conversation, and I am not sure if it is taught nowadays....

It's definitely not taught in Mexican schools.
I learnt the one for "usted" in old novels and movies, and I learnt the one for "tú" through Mafalda comics.
