So last night my colleague forwarded over to me a video clip posted on GIZMODO of Katie Couric, CBS Evening News anchor, talking about texting in relationships. Katie referenced a recent AT&T study that highlights how U.S. consumers are increasingly turning to texting for flirting and romance. Of those surveyed, 68% text love notes. The most popular message “thinking of u” and 28% say that they send it two to three times a day. Katie also opines on break-ups and hopes that it comes face-to-face as opposed to the more impersonal text message. She says “IMHO (in my humble opinion) a broken heart is bad enough without the BlackBerry phone.”
