Ohh, so lets say if you send a text with 250 characters and 125 is the limit, it'll be sent in 2 texts and won't charge extra? :o
You would get charged extra because it's getting sent as two.
whoops

Good night :D
160 character IS the limit...and no you won't get charged...it just gets counted at 2 separate texts...but really....this is your best deal...

The phone is $200, but you only pay $25 a month for UNLIMITED texting and data...that mean NO OVERAGE CHARGES. And you do get a good amount of talk minutes with that.

You should get your parents to look into it. It is a pay as you go plan...which is probably best considering you dont' want to get stuck in a contract...

I love talking on the phone/texting/etc. I just love talking with people in general.

Same with me, Luke.

However, I have spent the past week avoiding people when they text me due to work, but back on it now! 8D

I talk on the phone a lot, but mostly only cause I drive a lot where I work so I have to...but I mostly prefer texting or social network communication. Probably why I love twitter cause it kind of mixes social networks with texting cause you can get all your tweets and replies as notifications by text.

I used to not really like Twitter but it has grown on me.
I love twitter, but I've been on it for more than 3 years now, and I just need a break from it....I do it every now and then to just give myself a rest from it. xD So I am taking a two week vacation from twitter, facebook, and dailybooth....

I'm ALWAYS on the web on my phone, and I text a lot. I rarely call people. When I get my new phone next week, I'm gonna get unlimited text & web, and 300 minutes.

Twitter has been my life since 2009, and I still love it.

Twitter is extremely handy for me, I love tweeting and letting people know what I'm up to, it does help bring a lot of friends that don't frequent the other places I visit anymore a lot closer to me.

I made a twitter long before a lot of people actually used it and then once they did I forgot my password for 2 years :/ but i'm back on it now but nearly as much as I am on other sites like facebook, lj, or tumblr.

and I love calling people or texting, I just feel like calling is more personal and I don't have to deal with my lame 160 character limit.

Yeah, that's one of the benefits for me too. A lot of my friends don't use PC or IRC anymore. So Twitter is where I can harass them endlessly.

I absolutely love twitter. Hate the character limit though. I use it more for my internet friends and Facebook for my real life friends

Most of my friends in real life use Facebook, and most of the people I talk to on the internet use Twitter. There's pretty much no overlap between the two, so it's like I could be two different people with it! With Twitter, I post snapshot reviews of films and TV shows I've watched, so the character limit is good in that it forces me to be concise (which I normally am sooooooo not good at doing!) and succinct in my opinions.

I don't have a twitter myself but I follow a bunch of other people's twitters. Like Conan O'Brien's and Homer Simpson's, they're both hilarious.

I also have a facebook but I'm rarely on it. It doesn't consume my life like a lot of other people. Video games do that for me.

I have a twitter account but only use it when I'm listing to Australian Rules Football on the Radio and want to add some input - hooray for shoutouts.

Facebook is boring for me, I have no clue why I still use it.

And as for my phone, that thing has been picking up dust for the majority of the year, I'm not the type that enjoys blabbing on the phone for hours, I'd rather keep it short and straight to the point.

My friends do everything on the Spanish copy of Facebook, Tuenti, so they pretty much plan everything without me XD I only use Twitter regularly anyway, it's very useful if you like stalking people.
