Week 3 - Internet Communications

The internet has changed the way the world communicates with every which way you can think about. Now we can communicate worldwide with friends, family, and loved ones. Not only just with emails but with applications for schools, loans, and being able to see your bank statements. I feel the internet has brought family and friends closer. I personally use Facebook to talk to all my uncles, aunts and cousins on a daily basis. Even my 90 year old grandparents use Facebook. I used to use Myspace but that’s a social network of the past. I feel Facebook is the best out of the two. I do not feel email is has made us impersonal. I still call my mom when its relevant because its nice to still be able to communicate with her and I can tell by the tones in her voice if everything is alright. I do not have a Skype account, but I do use AOL instant messenger as well as Blackberry Messenger. I feel Blackberry’s and iPhones have changed the way one communicates as well. Even txt messages. Now with Facebook, I have been able to communicate with people that I have not seen or talked to since elementary school The internet has change us in several way in which we now use as a tool to communicate.
