Description
It is apparent in this world of technology tools that texting has become a viral characteristic of many youth. More than half of all teens send and receive text messages daily, according to a mobile phone study by the Pew Internet & American Life Project (http://pewreseaxch.org/pubs/1572/teens-cellphones-text-messages). Young people today find themselves utilizing text messaging as a way to maintain conversations with friends, much like an extended instant-messaging session but without the need to be attached to a computer. It has become so viral that text messaging is now the primary way teens connect with their friends. Texting has surpassed face-to-face contact, email, IM, and voice messaging--even voice cell phone conversations. It is the routine daily messaging tool used by the K-12 student age group.
