Mobile phones and the Internet have made it easy to stay in contact with other people. However, as a lot of time is spent using telephones and computers, there is less face-to-face contact and direct communication. Is the growing use of communications technology a positive or a negative development for society ?

of digitalization has improved all aspects of human life. Especially the way we communicate with each other is not still the same as before, because innovative technologies give people an opportunity to reach somebody from everywhere in the world in a few seconds.

travelling to formal meetings.

Therefore

Although

there are many people who prefer to spend

time

messaging or playing on a phone, real friendship couldn't be disturbed through
