What's faster: text messaging or e-mail? [6 vote(s)]

E-mail, of course. Duh.
50.0%
Text messaging is so expensive, it would be positively rude if it wasn't the fastest!

A Poll


Haven't had one in a while, so I thought I'd start one.


I've just been having an e-mail exchange with a mate in Oz and we decided to try an experiment.  What's faster; text messaging or e-mail.  Steve sent me an identical text and e-mail message.  Which do you think go to me first?  Poll away!


I'll post the answer tomorrow.


You only get the best polls from the JDK!

Well the answer was...


TEXT MESSAGES!


The reson for the delay was that... er... posting on the JDBB is even slower than both of these...  um... honest.

As GMail is the greatest thing in the world, it's probably fair to say that GMail chat is th greatest chat thingie in the world and would therefore be faster than both texting an e-mail (unless it's GMail to Gmail, which I guess would be blisteringly fast!).

Outlook at both ends.


To be fair, the delay was probably the fault of two corporate firewalls!
