Technology doesn't stand still for a minute and when you take the time to sit down and think about it, it is amazing to think of how far everything has come over the last decade or so. Obviously it hasn't been that long since the internet was invented. Back in 1985 a primitive version of the internet was constructed by the American defence military, one decade later it was available to the world and now most people have email accounts and access to the internet.

The mobile phone was also invested back in the last few decades, although mobile technology was available before this point it was not really available to the general public until the last few decades. Now most people own a mobile phone and use them daily to text each other and communicate with each other.

Over the last few years a strange change in the market has been taking progress and what has happened is that people have decided to opt away from Email to SMS. But the big question is why are so many people opting away from Email to SMS?

Well one of the key reasons so many people are opting away from Email to SMS is because SMS is a much more instantaneous and connected technology. If you send someone an email then there is the chance that they could not read it for days, they may be away from their computer and/or it could get stuck in cyber world somewhere. Most of us have our phones on us all of the time and have them turned on while we are awake. A response to a text message is likely to happen much quicker.

Some of the email companies are starting to fight back, with mobile phones moving in on their markets allow clients to send emails from their phones, email companies are now offering the opportunity to convert Email to SMS. Basically this means that you can set out an email and then through the power of the internet send it to a person's mobile phone through the power of SMS text messaging.

Ultimately we are all winners because although these two alternative technologies are competing against one another for our services, we are the ones who benefit from these companies battling it out for our services and whether you are using email to SMS or SMS to email the winner is communication.
