Text messaging could become a thing of the past as millions of young people turn to other forms of electronic communication.

Teenagers are increasingly using instant messaging from mobile phones and social networking sites such as Facebook.

Experts predict the amount of texts will drop by 20 percent in the next two years. It comes as teenagers and students are increasingly using a BlackBerry, instead of iPhones and other smartphones, because the device has a free BBM messenger. Sales in the phone, that was once the “preserve of the corporate boardroom,” have increased six-fold during the past year, mainly due to being taken up by 16 to 24-year-olds.
