SMS has evolved based on abbreviations and informal phonics in order to keep message times as short as possible. This is a conversation recorded between me and a friend via an SMS mobile text.
Scott: Wtp sm hwz lf. Tis is borin, hope u lk it.
Sam: ya im gd, im so bord aswl. Bt the txt is quit fun.
TRANSLATION:
Scott: Whats up Sam. This is boring, hope you like it.
Sam: Yea i am good, I'm board aswell. But the texting is quite fun.
SMS allows users to quickly send short burst of textual data to other mobile users, in a quick, convenient and cheap way. This has made it the communication medium choice of many people in the information age. However, in turn it is limited in the amount of information/data that can be sent and there may be no instant or any feedback if the user does not reply.
