1.Where would we be without the Internet?We certainly wouldn't be at once messaging someone we met six years ago.We also wouldn't be able to form a sentence using only symbols like J or L.Before the Internet came into being,there was no such thing as"unfriending"someone.
We no longer require homes,bars,offices or cafes to keep in touch with people.We can do it wherever we happen to be.This leads to some questions.When we connect to our devices,are we not connecting from the people around us?Are we hiding behind a screen from the physical world and becoming anti-social in turn?While there is a sense of panic about how the Internet is damaging communication,there are also lots of people who believe that it is actually making our friendships better.For better or worse,here are a few of the ways the Internet is changing the way we communicate.
Online relationships.Online dating becomes cool---it removed the embarrassment of forever-alone sitting at home imaging long walks on the beach and candlelit dinner.According to The New York Times,about 50million people use Tinder every month.Outside of Tinder,online dating has increased rapidly on platforms like RSVP and OKCupid.Gradually,dating online is just like meeting someone at a bar these days.
Everyone is an expert.The blogger vs.journalist debate has been very hot lately.While blogs are seen by their readers as an authentic channel of communication,bloggers'knowledge is often called into question by those,a journalist,for example,who have taken a more traditional route to get where they are.Thanks to the Internet,anyone with a keyboard can say anything they want.On the other hand,online blogs have given rise to voices that may never have been heard otherwise.
Social media.It has made us communicate with a much greater number of people globally that used to only be working on a local level.While this is great when it comes to keeping friendships alive over great distances,it also increases the demands on people to keep a much larger number of relationships going at the same time.Social media is a great tool,but if you find yourself looking through Facebook while you're at a dinner party or hanging out with others,it may be time to reconsider your relationship with the Internet.
No matter what your opinion about whether the Internet has changed communication for worse or better is,there's no doubt that it plays a major role in our lives today.So make sure you keep up with the latest technologies.
