5.0 out of 5 stars Great little book 1 Mar 2010
Format:Paperback
You want to understand what your kids are texting you with? They even use these shortcodes on MSN/Yahoo Chat/Facebook Chat, it is a great little book to keep up to speed and to ensure that they are being safe online and whilst mobile. I have had several copies of this publication, friends and family have snapped up the chance to have one. Fabulous!

3.0 out of 5 stars A really, REALLY little book... 2 Mar 2002
By Jeff Hester - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I didn't expect much from this book, but I have to admit I was surprised by just how little it really was. Fits nicely in the palm of your hand, conceivably so you could carry it around with you for reference when deciphering the obscure text messages your friends send your cell phone.

It does a fair job of covering the usual abbreviations, shortcuts and acronyms, IMHO. The smileys are a bit of a stretch. I found it odd that standard ones appear multiple times with different descriptions. Felt like they were trying to fill the book.

In short, it's a cute little book that might make a nice gift for someone just getting into instant or text messaging. Don't expect to use it as a serious reference, though.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but could have been better 24 Mar 2006
By Alfredo Sancho Caravaca - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It is a good book, for beginners though. But it could have been so much funnier; also, there is some information which I think useless, it should be more specific in the sense of using real messages young people (the age group that sends most of the messages nowadays)send. However, it is a good book if you want to know about sms in a very general way.
