New messaging service makes cell phones more useful

By now, we’re all pretty much aware of SMS and MMS messages. We’re also probably aware of the drawbacks, such as the fact that you can never be sure that the person is going to actually respond to the text message. A new system is on its way that will solve the eternal question of “will they ever return my text, or are they too busy playing WoW to care?” as well as a few others.

The new system is called Mobile Enhanced Messaging is the next logical step in phone messaging from the text/picture/video messaging side. The most important feature is that you can have a conversation with more than two people, so there’s no more asking a bunch of people what they want in a single message, and relating each person’s response. The conversations can be through text, images, video, audio, and “other future content” which I assume must mean holograms.
