Communication in
social media
There are various modes through which we
communicate with each other. In the past, these
modes took the form of handwritten messages,
typewritten messages, short telegrams, computer-
encoded texts, as well as landline telephone
conversations, and audio/vide recorded messages.
Because each mode of communication is distinct
from the other, the ways in which we craft our
messages differ. For example, there is a greater
tendency for us to write a longer more visually
detailed message if we encode it using a computer. If
we handwrite the same message, or deliver it through
an audio recording, the message will not be the same.
Today, with the rapid rise and
spread of Internet connectivity ,the
old forms of communication have
given way to new forms that make
communication easier and faster.
