What Else Can We Blame On The Internet
And Text Messaging?


What Else Can We Blame On The Internet
And Text Messaging?
09/01/2004 02:42 AM
There's plenty of blame to go around, though, it's certainly not new. In the past, we've had stories on people blaming text messaging for the divorce rate in India and poor turnout at movies. It's not just text messaging, though. The internet has been similarly blamed for the increase in divorces in the US. Well, now we can add the UK to the list, as they're afraid that both the internet and text messaging are contributing to the divorce rate. Meanwhile, we learn from Textuall y that mobile phone use is being blame d for kids having sex at an earlier age in Norway (though, I'm pretty sure this is a repeat of a similar story a few months ago where mobile phones were also being blamed for youth violence in Japan). Speaking of Asia, it appears that Koreans are worried that kids are exhibiting signs of addiction to mobile phones -- such as being worried that they'll miss a message or feeling anxious when not around their phones. One person even claimed to feel "phantom rings" where she would think her phone was vibrating with a call or text message when it wasn't. Of course, it always pays to be a bit skeptical of stories about people being "addicted" to some kind of technology. Too often, those reports come out from individuals or organizations who just so happen to offer psychological services (for a fee, of course) to help solve this problem. While it's worth noting the overall impact of new technologies and how they changes society, it's a bit worrisome when the technologies themselves are being blamed for problems -- rather than recognizing it's the misuse of that technology that's the problem. While some of these can be solved as people learn proper usage, it also sounds like there's going to be quite a large market for technologies that lessen some of the downsides to misuse of communications technologies. For example, in the article on the "addiction" in Korea, Carlo Longino suggests better presence information ("I'm busy") tied to mobile phones could help the constant need to answer a phone or text message as soon as it comes in.

First it was people complaining that kids watching DVDs in the backseat were killing the spirit of the "family road trip," but now you don't even need a fancy expensive in-car entertainment system to lose out on all the joy of family bonding (fighting) in the car. Textuall y is pointing to a story saying that kids in the UK spend a good portion of time text messaging their friends during road trips. They also prefer to listen to music, rather than actually talk with their family, but I imagine that's been true since the walkman first came on the scene.

SMS text speed record smashed
June 29, 2004

A SINGAPORE business student with nimble thumbs has broken the Guinness world record for the fastest SMS.

Kimberly Yeo, 23, clocked 43.24 seconds for typing 26 words.

The 160-character, 26-word text she typed read: "The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human."

The previous record was 67 seconds for the same 26 words, held by James Trusler of Britain.

More than 500 people took part in Sunday's "SMS Shootout", The Straits Times said.
