I was 17 at the time, and heavily into computers, programming, and the Internet as a hobby. Far from being novel I thought this idea falls into the "bleeding obvious" category.

Once a lot of text messages are happening and people start sending phone numbers and email addresses to each other, it becomes obvious. Of course, I'm not sure the idea is patentable, only the implementation.
