"Texting" and "Text Message" in the Oxford English Dictionary

The Oxford English Dictionary has officially listed texting (texting, n.) and text message (text message, v.) in their latest update on June 15th. Seems odd though that "texting" is classified as a noun and "text message" a verb.

And Google (Google, v.) has officially been listed as a verb.
