Its all about communication
In Ireland the colleges use textng to contact parents. 450 characters can be delivered onto mobile phones and consequently the postal service is suffering. Unlike email, everybody has a cellphone. During 2010 watch the explosion of advertising through texting and the growth of the business of mobile websites
A teen's point of view

Any texting done in an educational setting is bad.
Too many students think life and school is a game.
They are not.

Texting
Texting is a great new dialect or an alternative English that can be used for lots of good...its just that if used or known excusively then its just another dividing line between American people and these lines are what are killing us.
Why do most other decent and civilized countries of the world have universal health care, housing for all, equity in education, and less violence --inter and intracountry? Other countries see their own people as their own people. It is their common belief that it is the duty of the more fortunate to help the less fortunate whether they are liberals, conservatives, or what have you. We care for our less fortunate by our higher infant mortality rates, by our ever increasing high schooldrop out rates and by our ever expanding prison rates.
So young people do go forth in your hip and energetic and vigorous development of texting language...but do not just let corporate sellers of cell phones and text related parphinalia juat use you until the next sales drive comes on. In other words keep on learning standard English reading and writing and keep on developing person to person, eye to eye, hands free for
gestures, wiping tears from your eyes and hugging. Keep a little time free from texting to read 1. real books, 2 write real papers 3 learn using media critically so you can get what you need to involve yourself in to bring our citizens together rather than so far apart. Such a clever, ingenious and hip generation, full of all races, all sexual orientations, so much media savy and energy--I know you could be the generation to make America peaceful, planful, and one nation with liberty and justice for all.
Texting should not be aloud
I think that a lot of kids dont care about other kids so they want to send them a very mean message
Txting
I don't text 2,900 texts a month...but I do find the technology helpful. Occasionally, I will get texts from my parents or my boyfriend, which is less disturbing than phone calls (I know what they want to say right away, which is usually "I love you.") A lot of my texts comes from services, like google calendar. I need a lot of reminders to stay on tasks, and I find that sms services save me the hassle of carrying around a paper planner. (There's also the added benefit of real time reminders.) I also have picture mail and I will use that to take pictures of interesting things in class, like a lengthy formula my teacher is writing down. Anyways, I think texting can be good or bad, it just depends on who is using the technology and how.
OMG
I've never thought of texting that way! I'm 14 and I know that my language hasn't gotten worse because of texting, see? I think texting should be allowed at school, just not during classes. It is a good way of communication with people, and can be positive.
