In a few hours, we will send our best wishes to our loved ones. Although SMS retains some followers, this means of communication is increasingly neglected in favor of social networks.
Happiness, success, good health: on New Year’s Eve, to send our wishes to our loved ones, we have different means at our disposal. “I put a post on social networks, that way everyone sees it and you don’t have to send an individual message to everyone“, explains a young man. “I send an SMS to people who are a little older, who don’t necessarily have social networks“, says another person we met.
Social networks are therefore increasingly favored. However, a few years ago, SMS was essential to the point of saturating the network. “At the time, it was a struggle, we were waiting for the moment when the message would get through“, testifies a lady.
After a peak on New Year’s Eve 2014, with 70 million text messages exchanged, the use of text messages is decreasing year following year. On the other hand, the exchange of mobile data has continued to increase since then. A switch from text to photo or video greeting which can be explained by two elements. “On the one hand, the network, 4G, allows this. Second thing, smartphones have evolved into a sort of mini-computer, where WhatsApp for example, helps a lot“, explains Haroun Fenaux, spokesperson for Proximus.
However, we have not stopped personalizing our wishes. “From now on, you can send more personal photos to a limited number of people with applications“, he continues.
According to tradition, we have until January 31 to send our wishes, but in person, it’s even better!
