As per the
information/statistics from Wikipedia, short message service was first sent
through Vodafone GSM network in the United Kingdom. On 3rd December 1992, the handset
which used this service first was termed as Orbitel 901 handset. The person who sent the SMS was Neil
Papworth. The text read as “Merry Christmas”.
The technology behind the sending
and receiving of SMS lies back to 19 years back. It was first develo0ped by the company termed
as Franco-German GSM cooperation in 1984 by Friedhelm Hillebrand. It was then sent after eight years as a simple
text “Merry Christmas”.
So the text message technique
turns 19 years old today in 2012. Every
one of us uses this service in our daily lives.
Sometimes it is best to send a SMS then to make a call to the other
end. In 2010, SMS texts sent was made
$114.6 billion in revenues worldwide. This
statistics is increasing everyy7ear and it’s building the telecom systems with
more features and generating much revenue than ever. So, this is the all story of our own SMS
service which has turned to 19 years old and still it’ll be the best service as
far as the telecom communications is concerned.
