The AT&T’s Unlimited Data & Messaging plan is the perfect way for me to stay in touch with my large family. My teenage and adult children keep themselves very busy, and a text message or two during the day keeps us all connected. You can see their personalities emerge in their words, and it often makes me laugh out loud, and at the same time, feel connected if we’re away from each other for hours through the day. I can call my teenage daughter three times in ten minutes, all of the calls going to voicemail; I can text her at the same time, and get a reply in 10 seconds! Go figure! Texting is the way they often communicate, it’s that simple. So the best way to stay in touch is often with a text message, sending or receiving a picture via text, and using our AT&T phones to do so. And all of it can happen along with all the data I want to use, for about a dollar a day…that’s the cost of the AT&T Unlimited Messaging and Data Plan, just $30 a month.
BTW, I picked up a few shortcuts for those of us that are bit slower at texting. While a full keyboard has made it so easy to text, I still look for shortcuts. U R right, I do. Look for the shortcut clues that come from your teens – they’re a great source of them! LOL.
About Delilah
Delilah, the most-listened-to-woman on radio in the U.S., embraced the medium when she was a middle-schooler in Reedsport, Oregon, reporting school news and sports on KDUN-AM, a small station in her hometown. Today, her soothing voice, open heart and love of music has expanded her audience from the folks in Reedsport to more than eight million people on over 200 radio stations in the U.S. and Canada.
Her distinctive blend of story-telling, sympathetic listening and encouragement – all scored with adult contemporary soft rock – makes her top ranked in most markets among women 25-54. Delilah says her show is a “safety zone where listeners take off their armor, slip into a ‘Mr. Rogers’ cardigan, sit around the electronic hearth and share their secrets.”
She adds that her audience is “just like me and the two women working on the show, who were once listeners. We are single parents who work hard to strike a balance between family and work life. We also enjoy our friendships and remember to laugh as much as possible.”
Hello, everyone! I’m Nicole, an AT&T employee and soon-to-be-mom of a baby boy. My husband, Justin, and I are expecting our first child at the end of April. It’s been a year of big changes for us, as I relocated with the company last April from the San Francisco Bay Area to Dallas. Thankfully, my husband was able to maintain his career, working remotely from Dallas. I’m jealous he gets to go back to California every month or so, especially during the summer to beat the heat! Just as we started getting settled in Dallas – learning the neighborhood, what road led where, and I was getting up to speed on my new job – we found out we were pregnant! It has been an exciting, if overwhelming, journey for us. Critical during our relocation was the use of our smartphones. If we got lost, or if we needed to find a restaurant, e-mail our realtor or send a quick text, our smartphones didn’t let us down. Now with the text4baby program, I can get quick and informative baby advice sent directly to my phone. With all the hecticness in our work and lives, these texts create a quick moment to reflect on the big change coming in our lives and learn something about the new life we are forming. I look forward to sharing this experience with you through my blog posts, and learning more about how to use technology as a new mom. Is there an app that helps your baby sleep through the night?!
