[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only one who finds texting extremely tedious and bothersome?  I hate it!. I can't "punch" the damn keys right and it takes forever to type a freaking sentence. Yet friends insist on telling me their life stories via text. I really must be old and crochety or something because I see people everywhere texting, fingers moving so fast, you would think they were born doing it.

How do I become a savvy texter? Or should I just give up, I'm only 33 years old, is it too late? Should I employ the help of a teenager to help me learn how to text faster?[/quote]

If you really want to text more conveniently, you need to get a phone that has a QWERTY keyboard.  There are many styles.  I have a flip phone (the now discontinued LG Lotus).  You can get ones with the keyboard on the front face (e.g. Blackberries).  You can get the candy bar style phones where the face slides up and the keyboard is underneath.  You can get a Smart phone with the keyboard onscreen.  But it is very hard unless you're under 22 to text a lot with the old style phones where you have 3 letters to each key and have to single, double or triple stroke each key to get the words out.  If you have a QWERTY keyboard, it's much close to typing on a computer keyboard, just with your thumbs instead of with all or just a few of your fingers.[/quote]
