THE E-MAIL REVOLUTION, ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES

Once upon a time a boring world where nobody can talk with anybody face to face, but everybody was happy…

This paragraph could be extracted from a fairy tale, but actually is a representative way to express how the mankind has been communicating in the last years.

Some years ago it was quite normal to see some people getting some stamps when they wanted to sent a letter to a relative who has travel abroad. And when they finally could post their letter, they had to wait for too long to received an answer.

It is a lucky that all these things have changed. Now you can save all this time and money (because it was too expensive to sent a letter to another country) using the email. This wonderful tool has arrived to become the communication in something simple and friendly.

It is quite normal in these times, to hear everybody asking for your email address, because that’s the coolest way to be in touch nowadays. And it is not only for fashion, it is because through this tool you can send and receive message, files, pictures and other stuff, making the email a very useful resource.

However the email is finishing with the old and traditional face to face chat. These days is more common to be in touch with you neighbor through the email than talk with their personally. Even worse, the people prefer to be in an internet coffee sending emails and using the chat than to be in a park talking with some friends.

In conclusion, the email has change the communication, becoming it easier and cheaper, but it is becoming the communication quite impersonal and insecure, and is possible that one day we will not talk with anybody face to face.
