Texting as a method of communication

There are a lot of discussion nowadays about how "last technology" influence on people during the last two decades. In this post i would like to say some useful information about this communication in daily life.

I want to start from very typical phrase, that technology in our daily life are everywhere and of course
they have been grown dramatically during the last ten - twenty years. With internet, which has been created by Tim Berners-Lee in 1994, people started creating different ways to communicate with a speed of light. Everything has started from simple emails, people are still writing them and they are the most popular way of communication nowadays. If you can imagine, that there are 2.8 million emails are sent every second, however 90% of them are spam or viruses. Therefore there are still around 300 000 "clean" emails which are sent by people. At the very very beginning, email was only way to communicate with another people. But after "Technology Revolution" at 2004, when Facebook came up, people (specially teens) have started using it more than HotMail, GMail and etc., and left it only for official letters which are still used in all companies and organizations. 

The manner and speed of speaking in Facebook become 5000% faster than it was before with Emails, so people started using it more often. However, for younger generation is much easier to communicate with each other, because they are used to technology. Therefore they try to be connected all the time and always follow the news of what is going on with their friends (circles). 

At the moment, mobile applications such as "Whats App" and "Telegram" are undertaking Facebook by number of messages in second. It means that people started communicated faster and faster, by increasing amount of information to be delivered to another person. 
People are spending more time in social networks and applications, because it's much faster and more comfortable to text someone from your house lying on sofa, than making a meeting. However there are also some bad points about it, which i will try to deliver in my conclusion below.


In my evaluation i would like to say that "latest technology" are one of the most useful and comfortable tool which humanity has ever created, on the other hand people have stopped meeting with another people in order to communicate, and the main problem of it, is that the lack of practice in daily life will make difficult for people in future to practice their communication skills in order to succeed in real life of companies and organizations, where you can't just text someone in order to solve the problem. Professions like doctors, politicians, engineers, policemen and etc., has to know how to use latest digital  communication technologies in order to be on time with all people who are also using these technologies, however, they have to communicate personally more than online, because lack of practise in communication can cost them their job, money or time.
