Verizon Wireless Subscribers Send 10 Billion SMSs In June. Thumbs go on strike.
No word on how many of these were from upset teenage girls who just found out their boyfriend hooked up when their parents wouldn’t let them stay out past their curfew.
Wow… is my glass half empty or what??!!
Ok, so check it out, ten billion text messages in one month breaks down to:
- 333.3 million per day
- 13.9 million per hour
- 231,481 per second
So. Are you a texter?
