Best Answer

The colonists were outraged when the British taxed the colonists (after the French Indian War) crazy amounts. The British had a large tax on the colonists favorite drink, tea. So the colonists dumped a ton of tea off a British ship in Boston Harbor to make the point that they did not want to be taxed so heavily.

What was the Boston Tea Party 1773?

The Boston tea party was an act of colonists of Boston of which they did not want to be taxed on tea so they refused to take it out of the ships. But they couldn't send it back to England because their govenor wouldn't allow it, and said that it was to be held for 20 days, and if not unloaded by that time, would be sold at auction to pay for the tax. The whole point was so that the colonists wouldn't pay the tax though, so groups of men went and split up into 3 groups and destroyed all the tea on the ships, and then threw the tea into the Boston harbor.

Is two way messaging and text messaging the same thing?

Well the answer is no they are not the same, in fact two way messaging is used in combination with text messaging. Text messaging is basically the activity of us indulging in sending text messages (SMS - Short Message Service) to another mobile subscriber. For example if you send your friend a message like "C u Later", through your cell phone, you are basically indulging in text messaging. On the other hand when you send text messages to a short code and they reply back, you are actually getting involved in two way messaging. An example of two way messaging is consider you see an advertise on television for a poll like "What is you favourite colour ? A-Blue B-Green C-Others, Send your reply POLL A or B or C to 1234." Here 1234 is the short code to which you have to send your messages to. Consider you send the message "POLL A" to "1234", Most probably they will reply you back with say a message for saying thanks for participating etc. So that's why it is called two way, you send a message and get a reply back. In normal text messaging on the other hand is just one way, you just send the message, you may or may not get a reply back.
