Answer 1

Texting is a discreet way of communicating on- the- go. Some cell phone providers offer packages that allow you to use a certain number of messages per month.  

Answer 2

Text Messaging is silent communication between two individuals. You can send text messages to each other without other people being able to hear what is being said. Text messaging has it advantages than over making a regular phone call on your cell phone. They enable you the privacy to exchange messages with each other without fear of other people knowing what you and another individual are talking about. You can also send pictures in text messages instantly.

They also good to use to notify friends and family member if you are going to be a few minutes late to lunch or dinner. They also allow you to send a quick note to arrange a lunch appointment with someone such as your best friend without interfering much with each other busy schedules. Text Messaging are nice to be able to remind others about a certain meeting time. Text Messaging are nice since you are able to send messages to people when you are in a movie theater or important meeting without interrupting the other people close to you.

Text messages have their advantages and disadvantages at times. One of the advantages of text messaging is that you can customize quick notes automatically to send to someone without having to type question or sentence each time. One thing that we like the most about Text Messaging is the ability to be able to send a message to someone to ask them to call you later regarding something important. At the same time though it doesn't interrupt them with a phone call. It allows them to respond back to you when it is most convenient to them.

Text messages are wonderful way to communicate. You can let that special someone know that you are waiting for them for lunch. You can let that special someone know that you are cooking a special dinner tonight. You can even buy stuff through Text Messaging. You enter a code then you are able to order certain products through text messages. PayPal recently lauched a mobile service that allows people to use text messages to send money instantly. Good Luck!
