<p>This morning on my drive to work I received a text message from a neighbor about a speed trap near our subdivision. I was already past the area and somehow managed to escape getting a ticket, probably because I left extra early today.</p>
<p>But the thought occurred to me: this is the first time I’ve been warned about potential negative consequences by a text message.</p>
<p>How many of us find text messaging creeping into our daily lives, including client activities? Have you ever sent a text message to a reporter?</p>
