Text messaging, also known as Short Message Service (SMS), was not invented by a single individual but rather evolved through collaborative efforts and technological advancements in the telecommunications industry. However, the first text message was sent over the Vodafone GSM network in the United Kingdom on December 3, 1992. The message, which read "Merry Christmas," was sent by Neil Papworth, a 22-year-old engineer, to Richard Jarvis, who was attending a company Christmas party. This historic moment marked the beginning of the widespread adoption of SMS technology and paved the way for the development of modern messaging services.
