Why Text?
Text messaging is a quick way to stay in touch with people for personal or business purposes. With text messaging, you might
chat with a partner by typing on the keyboard and reading what they write to you on the screen. Many text messaging products can work with cell phone writing
messaging (aka SMS or Short Messaging Service) so you might
chat with all the people who arent in front of their computer. So, why not just pick up the phone and talk?
Its sooner than e mail and phone calls. And you do not
have to pay anything to text. If you positive need
to chat with someone briefly or inquire of
a quick question, its much less intrusive than calling someone. As with most developing technologies, several types of writing
messaging are available and each one is incompatible with the others. But dont let that keep you from trying it out. The main text messaging products are ICQ (www.icq.com), MSN Messenger (www.msn.com), AIM (www.aim.com), and Yahoo Messenger (www.yahoo.com).
