Tenting at the Mobile Phone Olympics

I

n Britain people send 1.54 billion text messages every month. That's more than 50 million messages a day or 2 million an hour! In fact, the average mobile phone user sends about 8 messages a day.

Now texting fans have the chance to show what they can do at the Mobile Phone Olympics. Every year about 15.000 competitors enter the competition in London. In the texting event competitors send an 80-character message as fast as they can. This year's champion is 18-year-old Natalie Johnson from Leeds. She can send a 30-word text message in just 138 seconds!

Of course, some people hate mobile phones. One event at the Olympics is just for them. This is the 'Mobile Phone Throwing' competition. In this event competitors throw their phones as far as they can. It's a lot of fun for mobile phone haters!
