According to a recent study, the more time people use the Internet, the less time they spend with real human beings. Some people say that instead of seeing the Internet as a way of opening up new communication possibilities world- wide, we should be concerned about the effect this is having on social interaction. How far do you agree with this opinion?

In

this

cut-throat competitive business world, the

internet

plays a vital role in everyone’s life. It is evident that

people

are spending an ample amount of

time

on the

internet

, and

thus

spending less

time

with a real human. Some segments of society reckon that there is another way to do communication rather than the

internet

as it has a detrimental effect on social interaction.

Although

there are arguments on both sides, due to my personal beliefs I agree that. These beliefs will be discussed in support of my personal stance in the following paragraphs. To embark on, there is no doubt for some

people

who supported to use the

internet

. They believe that it is an easy way to communicate with

people

across the globe as it was intricate a decade ago.

Moreover

, there are several ways, ranging from mobile phones, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp to E-mail can be used in professional aspects as well as personal uses. To

further

corroborate the above view, a Harvard Alumni study (2012) revealed that seventy per cent of businesses are succeeding because of cyberspace communication.

Hence

,

such

basic usage of the

internet

has changed the world dramatically. Why

internet

has a negative impact on social interaction? The underlying reason behind

this

is that

people

especially the younger generation, spend plentiful

time

online, chatting with friends and on forums and,

as a result

, they are not able to focus on their education and carrier.

Furthermore

, if society is spending most of the

time

with the

internet

and not mixing with their neighbourhoods, it would have an adverse effect on local communities.

For instance

, one recent study conducted by a health research centre confirmed that eighty per cent of the public suffered from eye fatigue disease due to excess usage of the

internet

. The more online follow-up, the more harmful effect. In conclusion,

although

there are various benefits to do communication via the

internet

, I would say that the enormous use of the

internet

may give harmful effects on communities.

That is

why I opine that the disadvantages of using the

internet

clearly outweigh the importance of the

internet

.
