What is Thumb-buttoning?
1.
The process of using your thumbs to message someone via text, IM, etc.
Much like texting someone but the action can be included in activities involving internet on a computer and a full sized keyboard.
I sent you a message on the computer last night but yuo logged off without reading it so i thumb-buttoned you instead.
John was cyber-thumb-buttoning Heather last night. He told me they thumb-buttioned for hours.
