Why People Use SMS Text Messages There is more than one reason why people use SMS text messages to communicate. For the simple reason, sending SMS text messages are much cheaper than actually making a call from one cell phone to another. Landlines today also have the option to send SMS text messages, and the advantage is that you can send a SMS from a landline to a landline that supports this option and even from a landline to a cell phone. People always found this way of communication cheap and simple. A normal conversation from a cell to another cell phone can cost triple the amount when all you can do is send a few SMS’s, which will cost the fraction of the price of a call and will give you the opportunity to say everything you want. SMS’s amongst teenagers will appear in the history books. They know exactly where the keys are, and need not look before finding the letter they want on the screen. Their fingers move so fast over the keys and this makes it impossible for someone to keep track of what they are actually doing on the phone. Nowadays it has become much simpler to send SMS’s. If you can’t figure out how to send a SMS just ask a teenager. When people are low on airtime and have not had the time “top up”, because to send a SMS cost the fraction of the price – to send that birthday greeting will always be remembered because it can be stored on the recipient’s phone. Another reason why people send SMS’s is probably because in the SMS world they have their own language, and it is understandable that older people do not understand what IM’s are. IM’s are long words made shorter. Some people understand IM language and some do not. One can easily judge that when he/she types out “…I was for eight months in this relationship…” instead of “…I ws 4 8mnths n ds rlthshp…” SMS’s save money and knowing how to IM will allow you save space in order squeeze in those extra characters. It takes a bit of getting used to. As time goes by, people adjust. Sending SMS’s will always be the first choice, and this is either because they have low airtime or they are stingy and want their airtime to last or they just enjoy sending SMS’s rather than making a call. Whatever choice you make, you will always be alerted that you have received a message. Don’t get upset if you don’t like SMS’s coming through to your phone or you don’t know how to work the thing because you are new to the cell phone world, but instead think that someone out there is thinking about you and just reminding you that you are important to them. You never know, just when you thought that your child has forgotten that it was your wedding anniversary, you have a SMS saying, “Hppy annvrsry! Lts of lv. Njoy ur day. ME! xxx.” It’s the thought that counts. The Messaging Centre offers everything you need to setup a browser-based SMS messaging facility. Take a FREE NO OBLIGATION TRIAL NOW.
