I text from my cell phone a lot. I have a full qwerty keyboard, which makes it easier and it's included in my package, so it doesn't cost anything.
Plus, it's easier when I don't really want to talk to someone.
I do think it's becoming increasingly popular.
Cashmere is me, down to the full qwerty keyboard. Before full qwerty, I could barely text Good Job!, though.
xpy?
Not sure if that looks right....
Nope
Have to pay for it and talking is faster.
Suddenly it all makes sense--juliana doesn't really want to talk to me!

All of this is extremely true for me. I love that I can text someone a quick question or note without actually having to speak to them.
Mostly to and from my sister. It's good for communicating when one of the parties is generally disinclined to answer the phone or listen to voicemails.
I would definitely text more if I didn't have to pay per text, but I don't know that I would text enough to justify the extra five bucks a month. Also, my cell phone apparently has very little memory to store texts, and it gets full easily. I like saving nice texts.
Hivemind question: do you text from your cell phone? Why or why not? Do you think texting is becoming increasingly popular?
I generally text for three reasons - sending the same message to multiple people, when I don't need an answer (i.e. a text saying I'm going to be late), or when I know that the person's in a loud place.

Expy.
I don't have a cellphone.
