Fox News -- I just SMSed to say ILU.

I was interviewed for this Fox News story about text-messaging and romance. Bottom line in my book of digital dating manners for well-bred nerds: hot-n-heavy haiku, fone-flirting, and pickup lines by text are all hot. Breaking up by SMS is not -- but it's also not entirely uncommon, particularly among late teens and twentysomethings.
