According to Wikipedia, the first SMS message was sent over the Vodafone GSM network in the United Kingdom on 3 December 1992, from a man named Neil Papworth using a personal computer to Richard Jarvis of Vodafone using an Orbitel 901 handset. The text of the message was “Merry Christmas”.

He's got a lot to answer for. How many billions are sent each year now? It's hardly worth keeping up.

It has been a enormous development. When Telenor started their sms service here in Norway they thought it would not be a success
