As of 2008, SMS Text Messaging Tops Mobile Phone Calls

Just wanted to share a link with you from Nielsen regarding the latest trends in mobile calls and texting. You will be blown away by what this report says:

  • There are now more text messages being sent on average each month than calls being placed (357 vs. 204) across all users.
  • Those aged 13-17 are sending an average of 1,742 text messages each month. Wow! That is almost 60 per day.
Can you believe it?
