This may be TMI but..... a helpful hint in the texting world.
First, here is the answer to the age old question:
What is the difference between SMS and MMS?
This has been bugging me for quite some time because I often look like a deer in headlights when someone says either term -I always forget - yet I am always MSing someone or some place all of the time!
SMS is Short Messaging Service. It allows you to send a Text Message Only.
MMS is MultiMedia Messaging Service. It allows you to send Text/Pictures/ Vidoes/ Graphics
Now did you know that some phones allow for GROUP texting. This is great but if you have your "group" on - then all people in the group MAY be able to read the responses. This may cause concern if the group does not know you sent a message to Tammy, Bill and Sara - and Sara responded back - "Just don't invite Bill!" ( Bill may be able to see the response! Bill is such a nice guy too! )
Check your account settings to see if you have "group" activation. Esure you always use polite texting and you'll have no worries.
PS: TMI is Too Much Information
One vivid example of software for Group texting is bulk SMS software for Android mobile phones. It is nice and ease in installation and use.
