    well, texting has officially arrived (if it hadn't before)...when LG is hosting the 'national texting championship' i'm curious where we've gone!

    even last night i saw a commercial (albeit funny) where a mom and a young girl have a conversation about her texting phone bill...the girl doesn't speak, but rather speaks in text codes to her mom.  anyhow, i just caught this tidbit on msnbc.

    girl wins texting championship by typing supercalifragilisticexpialidocious' in 15 seconds.  um, congrats?  i wonder if that will improve SAT scores?

    >> She estimated that she sends more than 8,000 text messages a month to her friends and family.

    Holy sh*t! Being a techno-geek and still in my mid 20's I consider myself to be fairly hip to most newer technologies... but I've not really gotten into the text/sms messaging scene. I think I send about 20-ish a month, so I can't even image how long it would take me to send 8,000 of them.

    I suppose that explains why those unlimited SMS plans are all the rage with the 'tweens'... and their parents (who are paying the bills).
