With an increasing population communicating via the internet and text messaging, face to face communication will become a thing of the past. To what extent do you agree with this opinion?

One of

the most debatable

Suggestion

the most debated

issues in the

last

decade has been the effects of new media,

such

as the Facebook chat, Instagram and twitter, on human

communication

. Some people think, that

as a result

of the increased

communication

through the internet, face to face interactions will vanish. Others, including myself, believe that direct

communication

has many benefits which makes it vital for our society. In the following essay, I will provide arguments and examples to support my opinion. One argument in favour of my opinion, is that text messages

can not

can not

cannot

convey gestures,

such

as facial expressions or a physical contact.

As a result

, it is difficult to fully understand the person we talk with.

For

example

, when a

man

is meeting a girl for the

first

time, facial gestures like a smile, or physical contact like holding hands, will allow the boy to understand his position regardless of the verbal discussion.

This

example

demonstrates that non-verbal

communication

is as important as verbal

communication

, and that new age media can not

adress

the place where a person or organization can be found or communicated with

address

these important aspects. Another reason to support my opinion is that when communicating through the internet, it is very easy to lie.

Consequently

, many people do not fully trust the ones they are talking to online. When having a conversation via the Watssup application,

for

example

, a person can post a profile image that does not reflect his looks.

Also

, people can give wrong

informtion

a message received and understood

information

about their location, jobs and age. According to the New York Times,

for

example

, more than 25% of the people reported giving false personal information online.

Furthermore

, more than 30% stated they do not

trust personal

Accept comma addition

trust, personal

information given to them by other users online.

This

shows, that online

communication

is not

trsut

have confidence or faith in

trust

worthy as personal

communication

, and in order to fully know a person, direct interaction is vital. In conclusion, I do not agree with the above statement, and believe that online communications

has

Suggestion

have

many disadvantages, namely the lack of non-verbal

communication

, and higher chances of

malignaring

, as opposed to personal

communication

.

As a result

, we should meet people if we are truly interested in knowing them.
