Facebook Text Messages?

does it require internet access. basically i'm trying to find a way so that people can send me a text message through facebook like i can send text messages using my yahoo email address. only i don't want to have to pay for internet access on my phone just so they can send me a text. i think i've seen some people where they have it so u can send them a text using facebook. also how do u add a link to Photos on ur facebook. i have a link but a friend of mine doesn't. it's not like they are trying to keep it private, i just think they don't know how to add it on there. also how do i get the new facebook. which i don't know if i even have the new one, or if i'm still stuck on the old one. i clicked to get the new one, but i think it might have gone back to the old one. not certain though. how do i set all of this up, or to make sure i have everything i need.

    Nope no internet access required! If they send you a message on facebook you will get it as a text through your phone, I don't have internet on my phone either. Not sure how to do the photo thing but to get the new facebook I had to google it and use a link from that, for some reason I couldn't find it on my profile. Hope I helped!!!

    BTW if you get notifications through facebook a lot make sure you set the facebook text message settings to receive only the time of notifications that you want so your phone isn't going off all day long!

    I hate that too because it's such a horrible thing to do. Facebook is horrible anyhoo because I joined two weeks ago and I still do not get what's the hype about it? It's so boring and privacy invading space. Goodness!

    im pretty sure that if u are to go to facebook on ur phone, u are using internet on it, which will prob give internet charging fees. otherwise, if u dont have internet conncetion on ur phone, the page fur it doesnt open. people think that it charges u , but it doesnt. it just simply doesnt open up...
