Txting Boosts Literacy

By Tommy Leung on 05/27/2008 in Marketing

Txt messages are amongst the most popular ways to communicate on our cellphones today and a lot of us can’t even imagine not being able to txt. There are just times when an actual call is unnecessary or you happen to be in a meeting, lecture, movie theater, etc. Studies show that txting boosts literacy amongst children. It is believed the the use of “imaginative abbreviations” help with reading and writing.

So with kids getting cellphones younger and younger, this is certainly good news. The smarter our kids, the better our country.
