I never thought text messaging would become as popular as it has, but government and governmental organizations use it as a form of communication between colleagues
Really? I work in government and its frowned upon to text at work! How did text messaging start?
I'm not completely sure how it started, but it was originally referred to as SMS, of Short Message Service
I didn't know that? Do you know why it is called that?
I don't, but it's actually grown beyond that to include multimedia messages or MMS, which contain images and videos.
