The New York Times says that text messaging passed up phone calls made from cell phones at the end of 2007, and from the looks of things, it will be double soon!
Teenagers ages 13 to 17 are by far the most prolific texters, sending or receiving 1,742 messages a month, according to Nielsen Mobile. By contrast, 18-to-24-year-olds average 790 messages. A separate study of teenagers with cellphones by Harris Interactive found that 42 percent of them claim that they can write text messages while blindfolded.
Sno-Isle Libraries is thinking about offering updates to teens by text message. Is we set this up as an option on our website, what choices do you think we should offer? Program reminders? New posts on this blog? ??? What would be most useful (or fun) for you?
