Yeah, undoubtedly.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh, jeez -- I just got a message about a power surge on a USB port, and then I realized I was kind of idly sticking a paper clip into the USB port on the side of my dock thing. Oops!
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.
This is me. Also, there are certain people I text with way more often then we talk on the phone. Like my guitarist, texting is his main mode of communication.
Texting helped me out of a verrrry awkward potential dating situation last year, actually.
The theatre students I know text like crazy! I think way more than they IM.

uh...haven't they been for years?
I do think the Kids These Days text a lot more than people my age -- even coworkers five years younger are way more about the texting.
Interestingly, we are open nearly all the time. Like, 24/7 from noon on Sunday to 6pm on Friday. Yet still people IM to ask if we are open.
Yeah, sometimes texting is just the best way to handle things. [link]
I don't have a cellphone.
Sue is my sistah.
Hivemind question: do you text from your cell phone? Why or why not? Do you think texting is becoming increasingly popular?
I do not text. It's annoying to me because I don't have a full keyboard, I hate text spelling, and I pay for text messages. While I do have a cell phone, I rarely use it. When I'm out and about, I like being incommunicado. Gives me a break.
