Texting is really popular in Britain many people send hundreds each week, they get say 300 or 500 free text messages a month and somehow they seem to use them all up.

If you use the phone much in the US or would like to use it a bit more it is worth seeing how much each message is or whether you get free ones per month.

Youngsters in particular again in Britain are forever texting each other.

It is useful if you are out shopping with someone and you can just text them and say meet you somewhere or texting someone to pick up.

After I replied to yours, I called my phone service provider to ask if I get charged for sending text messages. No, he said. I asked, What if they are sent to England? No charge, he said. WooHoo! (He also said that overseas text msgs don't always go through.) You were very clever to think of it.

In Japan, texting is free. It is considered extremely rude to talk on your cell phone in crowded places, like the Metro, or in a store, so folks text each other all the time. When we were riding from place to place, my friend would text her daughter, who was across the aisle on the train from us. LOL!
