The first commercial SMS message was sent over the Vodafone GSM network in the United Kingdom on 3 December 1992, from Neil Papworth of Sema Group to Richard Jarvis of Vodafone. The text of the message was "Merry Christmas." The first SMS typed on a GSM phone is claimed to have been sent by Riku Pihkonen, an engineer student at Nokia in 1993.
Initial growth was slow, with customers in 1995 sending on an ave-rage only 0.4 messages per GSM customer per month. By the end of 2000, the average number of mess-ages per user reached 35.
Short message services are developing very rapidly throughout the world. In 2000, just 17 billion SMS messages were sent; in 2001 the number was up to 250 billion and 500 billion SMS messages in 2004. At an average cost of USD 0.10 per mess-age, this generates revenues in excess of $50 billion for mobile telephone operators and represents close to 100 text messages for every person in the world.
SMS is particularly popular in Europe, Asia - excluding Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Popularity has grown to a sufficient extent that the term texting has entered the common lexicon. In China, SMS is very popular, and has brought service providers significant profit; it is also a very influential and powerful tool in the Philippines, where the average user sends 10-12 text messages a day The Philippines alone sends on the average 400 million text messages a day, more than the annual average SMS volume of countries in Europe, and even China. SMS is hugely popular in India, where youngsters oft-en exchange lots of text messages, and companies provide alerts, infotainment, news, cricket scores, rail-way/airline booking, mobile billing and banking services on SMS. In India, metropolitan media outlets oft-en take real-time polls and audience opinion through SMS, via reserved 4-digit numbers that redirect the information to the respective afore-mentioned outlets based on designated prefix codes.
