Americans now sending over 4 Billion Texts Daily

Believe it or not, that isn’t a type-o in our title. According to a recent report created by the CTIA, 740 Billion text messages were sent in the first half of 2009. This works out to over 4 billion text messages being sent each day! You can argue that people should stop texting and pick up a phone instead but this can be just as time consuming, if not worse. Also, if you’re anything like us and have friends all over the globe then it can get quite expensive. With these exorbitant numbers you have to question how this has become the preferred method of communication. It’s obviously not to due to saving time – 4 Billion texts daily comes with the hefty price tag of your valuable time each day. So what do we do? If you think we’re going to suggest using meebee…then you’re right. But come on, instead of wasting countless hours each week trying to meet with friends, sending and responding to texts that rarely result in getting a definite answer; you could be sending out 3 options at a time to multiple friends at once. It takes less than a minute and your job is done! So before that number climbs to 5 billion texts a day, think about how you could be saving time and give meebee a shot!

  1. That's insane. Too much time and too much money, let alone sometimes dangerous.
