Greater Interaction
with others and Organizations-
To keep in touch with people has become a lot more easier
thanks to the new applications such as Skype and Google Hangout which enables
people to talk and video conference from one country to another, even from the
UK to America. Often these are free which makes it more attractive to
customers, also to contact someone from one country to another does not cost
any money and is pretty much instant depending on how good your internet
connection is. More often than not though, it is very good and so it is a very
attractive prospect for people to use, whether as a one off use or an
occasional use to have conference calls. Another way that makes interaction
with others a lot faster and easier is the standard E-mail. E-mail is a free
luxury and is very easy to use which means that a lot of people find it a quick
and reliable way to interact with others, whether for personal or business use.
Email is often more reliable than applications such as Skype and Google
hangout, as it does not have the option of video calling which means that you
can communicate even with the lowest internet connection.
I personally would rather use the applications such as Skype
and Google Hangout as it gives you the opportunity to voice and video call
someone which is something that a lot of people may want to do, especially if
they are contacting a loved one who may be living very far away (e.g. America).
The downside to this though is that the quality can be very poor which means
that these luxuries may not always be available for people to use. So, on the
other hand people could argue that E-mail is better as it has one function,
text information, and so they would purely use it to do this and so it makes it
a lot more reliable.
I think you're right saying that social networking is great for communication, but then I can also see your view in that some elements can be seen as an ambiguous issue. I personally think it's a great way of staying in contact, but I think businesses have used this opportunity to 'spam' online.
ReplyDeleteYes, no days it is very easy to communicate. I'd say that email is becoming less popular now because of things such as Skype like you said. I think that it is still a very important tool in business.
ReplyDeleteUsing the internet and sharing information with organisations is a key part to a business in the modern age. not only is it a good way to talk to each other but I do believe that social networking is another key front to a businesses image.
ReplyDeleteI think that this blog post is great! I believe that social networking sites are a great way to communicate with people all around the world. It is great for business's because they can receive information and files quickly.
ReplyDeleteI agree, social networking is a great new thing and our lives would not be as advanced as they are now without them, but I also agree that spamming does occur a lot which does get on a lot of peoples nerves. Social Networking is a fantastic step forward in the way we live.
