Text Me....





SINGAPORE (Reuters) - A Singaporean student broke the Guinness World Record for the shortest time needed to type a 160-character SMS message on Sunday after whizzing through the task in less than 42 seconds in a competition

Are You serious?!
42 Seconds?!?
Are we becoming a BIT TOO COMFORTABLE with our use of cell phones today?
Come on .... think about it....
How often do we whip out our phone to text message instead of ACTUALLY CALLING THE PERSON!!!
I know I am guilty!! hahaha
But to put things in perspective ...
Is it really faster to sit there and push a numerous amount of keys to produce a message, then push send, AND THEN, have to wait for a reply
then it is to....
Look up their number and push talk?

I think not!

This takes away from the wonderful gift of ACTUAL CONVERSATION... without the breaks in between of the sending and recieving alerts from your phone! hahaha

Should we as a culture try to PRESERVE human voice conversation for as long as possible??????
Probably.

Do I think we will???
Let's just say, that I have to log off right now and send a text about my meeting tomorrow.....

Come on?!! Did you really think I was gonna CALL them?!!!
It's 11:52 pm! That's way too Late!!! hahaha
