Coming Up On Good Morning America - Extreme Texters



Stay tuned to Good Morning America for "Extreme Texters".

The story should be on Friday's show. Chris Cuomo talks to me, Preston McVeigh and Kimberly Garcia and our parents.

Text "Emilee" To 30644 And Do Something!

Since I'm in the news for doing nothing (just texting all the time) I thought it would be good to actually DO SOMETHING.

Kristin from Sprint set us up to meet with dosomething.org while we were in New York this week.

They set up a pretty cool program where you can text the word "Emilee" to 30644 and you'll get back a short message from me and then you can text back your zip code to get a text back with volunteer opportunities in your area.

Here is a link for more details on the dosomething.org website.

The video is coming soon.

Thanks to Etan Horowitz at the Orlando Sentinel for writing about it on his blog Etan on Tech on Monday (click below to read all about it)


The story also ran in the Orlando Sentinel on Tuesday.

Go ahead and try it .......text Emilee to 30644 and DO SOMETHING!

Emilee Cox on Inside Edition



My story got bumped a few times for real news like the NY plane crash and the inauguration of President Obama, but the story finally aired on Friday January 23rd.

Here is a link to the story.


I'll upload the video soon.

Emilee Cox - Weird Wednesday - Already in London?


So I knew I was going to be in the Orlando Sentinel....I wasn't too shocked to see the story quickly picked up in Tampa....but to have it reach the website for the London Daily Mail within 6 hours?
In the actual newspaper the next day it was a tiny article on the same page as Amy Winehouse.
