Impact of technology on communication

The ways new technologies of communication affect my interactions

Since the existence of electronic communication I have made friends who are far from where I live . Although not everyone I have met on the internet becomes my friends , some are business associates , others have become my employer and still many have become my friends . My very common means of electronic communication is through live chats such as yahoo messenger and skype . This is where I get immediate feedback as long as the person I am chatting with

They are those people who are hard to deal with , people who are not straight , who will look for war always . This I can only judge once I get to interact with a person face to face . Although one can get a vivid idea of some one 's character through their way of writing - that is the language they use , I believe some characteristics can be hidden and not seen through writing but will expose out rightly on face to face basis
