Text messaging

[pegkerr]

I have been configuring my My LJ page (very nifty feature) and am debating whether to enable the text messaging option on my account. Do you use it? How has your experience been? Am text messaging neophyte (heck, I am a technological dinosaur who has been mostly dependent on e-mail); do enlighten me. Worth it, or needless hassle? In what situations do you find it useful?

I enabled text messaging: in theory, you can use LJ to send a text message to my mobile phone. Thus far, nobody seems interested--they'd rather email, which is fine with me.

I use text messaging with precisely one person--adrian_turtle prefers it to phone calls during the workday because text messages don't interrupt her when they arrive. So I use them for things like "I'm on the 3:00 bus".
