Untold Text Stories: SMS in IRAQ
Link: Untold Text Stories: SMS in IRAQ
One of the untold text stories I’ve been privy to is the amount of SMS that flows out of Iraq into destinations around the world and the success of texting in the Iraqi mobile market. Untold, since in 2005 I was being interviewed by FORTUNE and The Wall Street Journal on the market dynamics of SMS into and out of Iraq. Why the stories were eventually “spiked” is pure speculation since at the time the drive by media swarmed around the difficulty of the war and it’s influencing the mid-term US Congressional elections. Explanations from both reporters were never forthcoming.
