History is marked by great divides: The House of York and the House of Lancaster. The Hatfields and the McCoys. And, if you've ever tried to send text messages between an iPhone and Android device, the blue bubbles and the green ones.
As someone who primarily uses an iPhone for his texting needs, I've never really given the blue-green divide much thought. When I text my fellow iPhone-toting friends, everything shows up just fine — images look good, emoticons are faithfully rendered, we can even send each other animated confetti an balloons on appropriate occasions.
