Texting hell.

An interesting e-mail today shows the increase in text messaging.
The figures are for Verizon Wireless customers and compare the number of text messages in April 2006 and April 2008.
Texting is, thankfully, a craze that hit after I grew up. I don’t send them unless I am in church or my wife calls while I’m on my office phone.
Burlington 1,897,799 12,179,676
Charlotte 15,357,231 103,069,815
Raleigh 8,575,862 56,181,192
Greensboro 11,622,357 76,910,664
Shelby, despite its sleepy veneer, is way ahead of the game. Look how many text messages were being sent in Shelby two years ago. More than in Greensboro. And more now than in Raleigh.
Shelby 13,173,651 76,904,914
