Text Messages - A Milestone in Messaging

On December 3, 1992 the first text message was sent and received and consisted of two words: "Merry Christmas." Today most people spend far more time texting on their cell phone than actually talking verbally.
I remember the first time I was offered a text plan with my cell phone package I asked "Why?" It wasn't something I ever thought I would want to use. I had a cell phone to call people and I had email. Was I wrong! I use my smart phone for everything, but most of all for texting. I text a lot, as much for work as socializing. In closing there are two thoughts to leave you with: Don't text while driving, and Merry Christmas.
