Then what explains relentless amount of texting people do during the day? I'm not sure if typing text is the barrier for people not using Google search.

- jacquesm 11y agoMy texts tend to be cryptic and much abbreviated compared to emails. I know a few people that are able to respond with texts containing punctuation and such but those are the minority, the bulk of it is 'see you at 5' and 'pls bring yoghurt'.

- TeMPOraL 11y agoI'm pedantic about "punctuation and such" and spend some effort to do that on the phone as well, out of a habit and respect for the person on the other side, but I still rarely write long texts on a phone. I sometimes noticed it takes me 20 minutes (i.e. more than a half of the tram commute to work) to type a properly-formatted long-for e-mail, when the same task would take less than 5 minutes on PC, so I learned to leave such tasks to be done when I get my hands on a physical keyboard. I do text and IM all the time, but that's because phone is a tool for conversations, not because I like it. I always switch to PC as soon as I can.
