Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Text messaging has a limited character count, which puts a premium on brevity and conciseness. The messages should be short and to the point, conveying the essential information in as few words as possible.

Answer: C
 Text messaging is a useful tool for delivering messages that don't require a verbal response, like quick updates or reminders. It reduces unnecessary telephone interruptions, saving time and increasing productivity.

Options B and D are incorrect as text messaging does not provide any signal about the availability of the respondent to respond immediately and virtual communities can be created using other forms of digital communication too.
