Texting is now a sport

Texting has become a form of daily communication for me.  I really apreciate how I’m able to have a quick, to-the-point conversation without the hassle of a phone call followed by small talk. For some people, however, texting is much more…

I was reading USATODAY.COM today and came accross an article that caught my eye, “How fast R U? Iowa girl wins U.S. texting title”   Who whould have thought that there is a reward for how fast a person can text? The competition is sponsered by LG and takes place over two days. With challenges that range from texting blindfolded to texting while maneuvering through a moving obstacle course and even how well contestents knew texting abriviations. For example the term PAW means Parents Are Watching. Conestents have to opportunity to win up to 250,000 dollars if they win the title of “Texting Champ” or 50,000 dollars to the winner. LG participates as the sponsor and advertises THE LG enV3 or THE LG enV TOUCH as the best phones for texting. I will now do one of two things, set my phone down for a few days, or start practicing.
