I'm open to any criticism. Can somebody help me find any grammar, spelling, or text errors? I need to upgrade this essay somehow, but I can't figure out how. How has texting evolved over the years that it has been used? Texting has affected lots of societies' ways of communication for almost 30 years. Texting was invented on December 3rd, 1992 by a man named Friedhelm Hillebrand. Friedhelm Hillebrand is a German engineer who has been influential in setting Mobile telecommunication standards. Hillebrand is one of the inventors of the SMS, also known as "Short Message Service" (Wikipedia, “Friedhelm Hillebrand”). At last count, we send roughly 23 billion text messages every day, globally. American adults send and receive 18 billion texts every day, 541 billion texts every month, and 6.5 trillion texts every year.

The impact caused by the SMS was very important to the phone/texting history because it is practically what lit texting like fire and spread it all over. Wikipedia says “The first test SMS message was sent on December 3, 1992. By the end of 2010, SMS was the most widely used data application, with an estimated 3.5 billion active users, or about 80% of all mobile phone subscribers (Wikipedia, “SMS”). This was important because the population by the end of 2010 was 6.9 billion, and 3.5 billion phone users were more than half of the population at the time. Here’s the article; SMS

Inventions of important devices were also VERY important because if they didn’t invent them, we wouldn’t have a good way to communicate, but the phones that we have today make it way easier to talk to friends and family. Also, according to a 2018 market research report, the global SMS messaging business was estimated to be worth over $100 billion, accounting for almost 50 percent of all revenue generated by mobile messaging. In 1997, Nokia released the first cell phone with a full QWERTY keyboard as we have on computers. Not only that, but in 1994, IBM launched the first touchscreen “smartphone” and named it Simon (SnapDesk, “Evolution of text messaging and RCS”) This is important because when the first smartphone was invented, it helped us improve phones by a lot, and if it wasn’t invented at that time, it would have eventually been invented, it just would be way later on in the future. We probably wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for them.

Small, but big events in the phone/texting history impacted communication because when texting got added as a verb, it showed us that it was very recognized, and a TON of people are aware of it. And then in June 2007, the first Apple phone, iPhone, was released. Finally, in 2010, the word “Texting” was added as a verb in the dictionary (SnapDesk, “Evolution of text messaging and RCS”). These are important because 217 million iPhones have been sold since 2007. Texting got so popular and well known, that it got added as a verb or an action in the dictionary.

Texting has had a large history and impact on society with communication so far. It has been existing for only 28 years, and there are about 18.7 billion texts that are sent worldwide every day, not including app-to-app messaging. Concluding, Texting has affected lots of societies' ways of communication for 28 years.

Answer from: j4ckd4ws

“the first apple phone, iphone, was released”
you don’t need to say that
you can just say “the first iphone was released” because iphones r literally the only phones apple produces

in conclusion sounds better than “concluding”
and texting should be lowercase after the comma

Answer from: Quest

the hunger games, written by suzanne collins, is fiction in the young adult genre, which is not my age group, but i found myself unable to put it down. its combination of nerve-racking tension, thrilling action, and engaging love story kept me up until the wee hours. i was surprised at how completely engrossing the plot was. like brave new world, this story is set in a future where the government oppresses its people, but the book also borrows ideas from the greek myth of theseus and the minotaur.

divided into 12 districts, ruled by an oppressive government located at the capitol. katniss everdeen, a 16-year-old girl from district 12, takes her younger sister’s place as one of 24 “tributes” selected every year to participate in the hunger games at the capitol.

while i found this book absolutely enthralling, i was surprised it was aimed at an audience of young adults. it seems extremely intense for anyone younger than 16 or 17. for example, there is a scene where one young tribute is slowly eaten alive by wolf-like creatures all night long, and katniss has to finally throw a weapon at him to end his misery. i found this a little too disturbing when i considered the age of the character.

the intensity of the action was something one would find in a more mature book, but the age of the characters and the simplicity of the prose were aimed at a much younger audience. in addition, this book was written in present tense, which i found annoying, but that’s more of a personal preference than a stylistic fault. it was also edited somewhat poorly, but that rarely distracted from the plot. for example, the author often spoke in sentence fragments to describe how katniss felt, which might have been an attempt to reflect on her thought process, but i found it disorienting to read a lot of really short sentences all together. it would have been better to vary the sentence length on occasion, but the story was still coherently.

overall, the hunger games was an excellent, enthralling read that i highly recommend. if it was more clearly marked for older teens, it would have been better, but it was a fantastic book with a wonderfully creative plot.

happy to .

pls mark as brainliest.
