The article mentions all sorts of texting apps, but fails to mention Google Voice. My single favorite Google App and the sole reason I don't pay texting fees anymore.
I think that's because GV merely provides free texting without integrating other IM services.
I've been aggregating all my messaging to facebook for awhile, my emails are forwarded to my @facebook address, and I used facebook for communication whenever possible. Maybe Facebook can finally replace the outdated tech that is e-mail and SMS? I hope so.
I call astroturf.
