Nowadays people make new friends through social media and internet chat groups. Some people think it is a good idea. Other think that face to face interaction is essential. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

There are two opposite arguments about
communication
in social
media
. The first opinion about
this
is good for them
however
the other side thinks to have face to face
while
interaction
is important. I think the second argument is quite good enough to communicate clearly. Using social
media
for
interaction
is the trend nowadays because of the increase in technology. Technology makes us can communicate with others in different areas. The advantage of social
media
is cheaper than traditional
communication
. Unfortunately, there is some fraud on the internet especially in social
media
. We can talk with somebody who using a fake account.
Interaction
in social
media
can not be clear because we can not see clearly the gesture and faces of our friends. Social
media
use the internet for the
media
so it can be delayed when we talk with somebody. Traditional
communication
is face-to-face
interaction
. We must have time and sometimes cost if we want to do
this
type of
communication
. The advantages of
this
are we can know clearly the objective of the sender and we can give our response fastly without delay. We can see the
interaction
between the mother and her children, there is bonding between them and the mother knows the goal of that
communication
. I think it is the best idea to keep
interaction
face-to-face. In recent times, we can not forget to interact with others face-to-face not only on social
media
because we are humans who is the social person that need others in our life.
