I had a great time taping an interview with CNN's Ninette Sosa, who was interested in hearing more about Read Between the Lines and how popular texting has become over the last 2 years.
Ninette was full of energy and really easy to talk to, which made answering her questions about texting that much more simple for me.
She asked questions about specific chapters inside of RBTL like "Why do you describe a text as a post-it note on steroids?" and regarding teens and parenting, "What rules need to be laid out as a parent when it comes to teens and their texting habits?".
Of course, it was hard for either of us to ignore the question "What type of messages should you avoid sending by text?", especially with the recent Tiger Woods "text fiasco" that anyone who doesn't live in a cave has heard about.
My recommendation to Ninette was "Don't text anything you wouldn't want your mom to read".
Not only did I enjoy my interview... I was also pretty thrilled to hear that CNN was running it worldwide, and several times a day, where CNN Radio segments air.
