txt messaging and smartphones?

instead of using the built in text, cant you just use an IM service or twitter through the internet, which would save u the $20 a month text plan?

Looking for an online photo sharing service that lets you write notes inside the picture?

I know that Flickr has this feature, and Facebook has it for people, but does anyone know of any other sites where this is a feature?

What would I use Twitter, Digg, and Delicious for?

I have a slight understanding of what each service is..
Twitter – update your status
Digg – Share news stories
Delicious – Social bookmarking

Basically, these are all web-social services, right?

But I’m the most “tech-savvy” out of my friends (which isn’t saying much). None of them even know what an RSS reader is. Many of them have never heard of Flickr.

So it isn’t like my friends and I will trade Twitters or anything. Digg, I’m kind of missing the point of, but it must have some logical use, because it’s hit it big. Delicious is pretty popular, but what’s the point of social bookmarking if you don’t have any friends that will contribute to the social part? I already use Google bookmarks. Should I give Delicious a shot?

I want your opinions. Would Twitter, Digg, or Delicious really benefit me in any way if none of my friends use any of the mentioned services?

What do you think Twitter is such an popular service?

I am amazed at the success of Twitter. I want to understand why it is so popular.
