英国人为短信疯狂一个月发送20亿封

　　据电信贸易组织移动数据协会称，英国人在今年3月共发送了21亿封短信，平均每天发送6900万封。这一数字较之去年同期增长了将近25%。 　　虽然短信在英国快速普及，但英国人却并非是欧洲短信之王。据最近一项调查显示，德国人每天发送的短信数量高达2亿封，而在全球头号手机制造商诺基亚公司的故乡芬兰，当地的民众每天发送的短信数量也超过7500万封。

　　LONDON - Britons sent 2.1 billion text messages in March, thumbing an average of 　69 million per day, according to figures released this week by telecommunications trade group The Mobile Data Association.

　　The figure, while not an all-time record, is nearly 25 percent up on the same period a year ago.

　　But while texting is rising fast, Britons are not considered the message kings of Europe.

　　Germans send a staggering 200 million texts a day, according to a recent survey, while mobile-phone-savvy Finns tap out 75 million per day.
