USA Mobile Changes

There was a time when the USA simply didn’t understand the texting phenomenon – why would anyone want to spend their life sending little text messages to other individuals. Well I think it’s about time those of us in Europe changed that perception of our cousins over the pond.

Russell Beatie highlights a report in the Economist: Getting the message. When it comes to sending texts the USA is now ahead of France, Italy and Germany and only marginally behind the UK. It’s a subscription page so I’ll have to trust that he has correctly reflected the statistics.

Russell goes on to suggest that texting is just part of a ‘much bigger trend’.
