You & Texting

1. Have a competition in class and

British woman, Melissa Thompson has
broken the world record for typing the
fastest text message, after typing a
26 word message in 25.94 seconds. The
previous record holder typed the same
words earlier this year in 35.54
seconds.
Thompson told Sky News that she was
shopping with her boyfriend when she
was approached by Samsung to try and
break the record: "I used to send a lot
of text messages - 40 or 50-a-day to
Chris alone so we both knew I could
type fast. But since we moved in
together and I started my job I
haven't been texting as much and, you
could say, my fingers were out of
shape." Obviously not that out of
shape.
The message she typed in 25.94
seconds:
see how fast you can type the
26-word long message.
