At this point in the Information Age or Computer Age (or whatever historians are calling it now), we don't need a study to tell us that text messaging has become stupid popular. By that same token, we also don't need an infographic to state the obvious, but if you're looking for a new poster to hang on your doom room wall, Mashable's "U.S. & Worldwide Texting Trends" graphic might fit the bill.
The graphic tells us things we already know, only in more detail. For example, did you know that "texting has surpassed email, phone, and face-to-face conversation as the main communication vehicle for 12-17 year old?" We're willing to bet you at least had a hunch.
It's also interesting to note that "200,000 auto accidents in the U.S. every year are attributed to texting while driving," and that "by 2009, 5 trillion SMS messages were being sent annually worldwide."
