How To: Text and Walk at the Same Time More Safely with These Mobile Apps
Texting is a godsend to mobile devices, but it also has its caveats. Sending a text to someone requires visual, manual, and cognitive attention—looking at what you're typing, holding the phone steady, and thinking about what you're trying to say. So, texting while doing pretty much anything else is not a wise move.I've tried eating a hamburger while texting and ended up missing my mouth—and I didn't have any napkins. A lady once tried texting while walking in the mall, and we all know what happened to her... Please enable JavaScript to watch this video.
The funniest part of that story is that she actually tried to sue the mall.How dare they place a water fountain in the middle of a mall?!?Well, lucky for us (and not very lucky for her), there's a new app for your Android smartphone called Walking Text (free).
