In Bristol you can now text a lamppost or a drain and get a reply?

Should I laugh like one?

Why?

Heaven knows? But apparently it's very popular and other cities and the USA are asking about the technology!

Movedalot Tue 16-Jul-13 19:25:42

Surely this really is a time for 'get a life'?

Movedalot Tue 16-Jul-13 19:26:02

Not you Galen the twit who thought this up.

The technology is not as daft as it might at first appear.

Galen Have you tried it yet then, which is your favourite?

This was featured on local news last night and someone texted a lamp post and it texted back asking if they were afraid of the dark hmm, someone else texted a drain and it texted back asking what they had for breakfast confused.

I would much rather have a conversation with the person sitting on the bench beside me rather than with the bench!

The first time I heard my son ask his iPhone a question I was in shock - the more so as he got a humorous reply!!
