Article   Texting - Affects ability to interpret words  

Research designed to understand the effect of text messaging on language found that texting has a negative impact on people's linguistic ability to interpret and accept words.

Article   Texting - less text messaging this holiday season, but not everywhere  

 

Tero Kuittinen, writing for Forbes, noted a decline in the number of text messages sent this holiday season in a number of countries. Several other sites picked up the same topic, and one site even claimed that this was “a danger sign for carriers.”

Curious as we are we wanted to try to figure out what the situation was like around the world and after some time with our noses in search engines, here’s what we found

Interesting table that compares number of text messages sent over Christmas and New Year in 2010 and 2011.  Countries in the table are:  Sweden, Finland, Hong Kong, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Belgium, Hungary, Serbia, and France. @pingdom @teachesict
Article   Personal Data - it's 2012 and your kids have an iPhone - Do you know where they are?  I do.  

The strangest thing just happened. I'm sitting here in a hotel in New Zealand and my phone pops up an alert from a push-to-talk voice chat application I recently installed called Voxer. It's a voicemail from a tween (a child perhaps not quite 13 - in-between) teasing me about my name. "Scott Hanselman - Who would name their kid Scott HanselAndGretal man. *giggle*" Harmless stuff, of course, but weird and random. No idea who this is.

The name wasn't familiar but there was a little icon next to the voicemail in the Voxer app. Perhaps you've seen it before. It was a little red pin.
