[Billy's Little Trip]

Sunday fun day
Better than a Monday
One ends, the other starts
So close together, yet worlds apart


Question Of The Day:I can't think of one, so the first person that thinks of one gets it. On your marks, get set....GO daddy-O

I'll take it.

QotD: How often do you send/recieve text messages?

I send a pretty good amount every day. I have most of my co-workers in my contacts list and one of them feels the need to text me at all times of the day/night.

I've never sent a text message.

[Adam!]

My grandmother sends me a letter once a year. Oh, and sometimes the secretary at work prints out little notices and leaves them on my desk. Those are pretty much the only text messages I receive.

I get a few from Virgin Mobile every time it's time to top up my cellphone account. Other than that, don't do text messages at all.

Are we talking IM or SMS here? From the phone, or from anywhere? Does the chatroom count? This question is as ambiguous as a Nur Ein Challenge! NEXT!

I've never sent a text message.

Oh good! I though I was the only one!

I never use mobile phones at all any more. They piss me off

[Reist]

qotd: I send texts when I'm in quiet places that would be awkward to speak up in - like libaries etc. I sometimes get none in a day, and sometimes I get 20. It depends on if there's anything to talk about (that's not worth a full blown conversation)

[Billy's Little Trip]

I tried it once (cell phone) and it is lame. Never found a need for it. It's so much easier to just hit speed dial and talk to a person or leave them a verbal message.

I've sent a couple. They have their place in the menu of communications, just as phone calls and email do. But text msg doesn't have as big a role in my life as in those young whipper snappers'.

[Spud]

I have found that in order to be effective in communicating with people, I have to find the technology with which they are the most comfortable. Some people don't like to talk on the phone, but don't mind email. Others rarely read their email, but will respond instantly to a text message. I even have a few colleagues who prefer faxes. Whatever it takes.

[HeuristicsInc]

mostly we're too old for text messages phone ones, that is...

i have occasionally used them - it can be useful if you don't really want to disturb the person you are contacting with a phone call, but you have something to say. also, mine sends me messages to tell me the results of my sports teams' games, which is pretty cool.

What's all this talk about being too old for texting? lol, I'm 28 and I do it. Both my parents text all the time too. Hell, sometimes they will text we when we're all in the same building.
