text messaging?

Are you a text messager? If so, how many hours a day do you spend sending out text messages and such? Are you a die hard text messager and do you enjoy messaging your friends over text messages?

 

I don't text message all the time, but it can be useful (such as when you are sitting in class)

 

I use text messaging sometimes. but nowhere near hours a day

 

I never use my phone to text, I'd rather talk to the person.

 

I find that people tend to text message ME a lot more than I'll text them. It can be useful, if you're in the middle of doing something where you can't easily talk on the phone. If you're fast, you can zip them a short text message immediately. I don't mind text messaging, but I'd much rather talk to a friend in person.

 

Texting takes too long, I rather just use verbal communication.

 

Granted, verbal communication is a lot better than frantically exchanging text messages. But they can be useful depending on the circumstances.

 

i love txt messages but i dont usually txt, i call as much as possible

 

I would love to have a phone that does Speech to text. Now that would be very handy!!

 

Funny thing, I recently tried a product that converted speech into type (of course this was on a computer, not a phone) but I promptly returned it.

Hopefully in five or ten years they will make your dream a reality Whimpering Warrior

 

text messaging can be useful if you want to have some time to think over the things you're going to say to the person you're talking to. or if you're in a place where you can't possibly make a call.

 

I think we're in danger of becoming isolated. I already talk to people less than before due to the conveniance of e mail. I think texting as well would just be the last straw.
Also, as someone who is no longer in the first flush of youth I find the abbreviations confusing.

 

I love texting. It is much cheaper specially for short messages.

 

i do text more than i talk... most of them to my friends.... but i prefer talking on phone at home....

 

I used to text message quite a bit until I figured out how much it was costing me

 

Text messaging is lame

 

I do text message with my friend. It is much easier to start/end conversation than calling. Also, i can save a copy of the massage as evident

 

I send em here and there but am definitely NOT addicted to it

It is a quick and easy way to get a message out there though

 

Do it a lot but am not addicted to it. Actually too much of it can have an adverse effect on your language skillss in the forums

 

I once went over $100 in a month on text messanging so I had to upgrade my plan.
