No, I think I've sent ten text messages today, and I don't really use it a lot. It's become the de facto standard for conveying short information between people. Lots of sites, public services, banks and what have you also have services where you can get a text message triggered by an event like a draw on your account, a user going online, etc. It has basically just matured and become a daily tool. My dad even uses it. And he's just turned 67.
