Nobody uses phones as phones anymore.

Okay, I suppose some people still do, but if you're like me, texting is the new calling, and the few calls you do make are along the lines of, "I'll text you when I get there." With that in mind, it's a good idea to make sure you're getting your message across as clearly as possible through text. Here are some ways to do just that.
