Text messaging is considered the fastest and most reliable means of communication. Texting is the process of sending short messages usually 160 characters from a mobile phone. Text messaging technology uses an SMS gateway in order to hook up any mobile SMS service to an existing instant message service, Word Wide Web, PDA devices, personal computers as well as to any landline phone. Texting was first known as Short message service or SMS.
According to some phone companies, the first text message was sent in 1989 by Edward Lantz. He had sent a text message through a motorola beeper. At first text messaging was not very popular when it first arrived but now is the most commonly used service for communication. The year 2000 is when the use of text messaging increased.
Today there are many phone services that offer text messaging and many people that use it. Teenagers are what take up most of the texting since they are addicted to it. Now older humans are starting to use texting once they know how to use their cell phone. Texting is among all people and has become very popular in the world today.
