UK Valentines lovers send 120 million love messages

Mobile Marketing Magazine: Love is…an SMS

Britain’s young, and not so young, romantics turned to their mobiles in droves to tell their loved ones what they thought of them on Valentine’s Day, sending 120 million text messages. That figure was topped only by that for the New Year period, when 165 million texts were sent. The statistics come from the Mobile Data Association (MDA)

Well do you remember I guessed 106 million? The prize being a wickedly naughty pizza if I got it right?

Ah well. I was out by 14 million.

No Dominos Mighty Meaty pizza for me.
