It’s become a trend nowadays that Individuals or businesses want to communicate through the internet rather than meets and discuss
face
 to
face
. There are a couple of benefits and drawbacks resides in the new form of communication.
This
 essay will
first
 highlight the positive sides and
then
 will discuss the pitfalls of it. In present
time
, the human race is moving ahead with the advent of technology and the way of communication has been changed drastically over a period of
time
. People are so occupied with their work currently that it became a hindrance for them to convey every information
face
-to-
face
.
As a result
, they prefer to send the news through internet which require a minimal
time
 to reach the receiver end.
In addition
 of it, when a business is spread irrespective of locations, it is impossible to gather all the employees for a discussion meeting.
However
, virtual meetings come handy in
this
 scenario. An article posted by News
Time
 shows that, WhatsApp is the most preferred mobile application by billions of people around the world for reliable messaging. On the flip side, people are losing human touch with the influence of technology. Nowadays, people rarely meet with their friends and relatives, because they feel, it is convenient to interact with them in calls and messages.
As a result
, social circles get smaller day by day and it will gradually destruct the humanity. Surveys by BBC News shows that, in present
time

face
 to
face
 interactions is essential,
otherwise
 we will confine only by the walls.
