As the world getting older, technology moving a step ahead and it gives human being both benefit and bad effects to us. Communication is something that born from the development of technology the moment computer was created; it was the beginning of new era of communication. No more birds used to send people’s letter and smoke to announce something important. There are many mediums of communications available nowadays and I believe many of us know about it.
Internet is the most important medium as many of us prefer to use it than go buy a newspaper because it much easier and interesting. Just at the tip of our fingers, everything will appear in front of us. I mean on the monitor. The latest news, what happen to the world today, and even what happen to our country and many of us use community website like friendster, my space and many other websites to keep in touch with our friends because it saves money and time. The using of e-mail also enables us to contact with many people all over the world even at different side of the world. Everyone can be our friend, but I’m not sure about alien because we are not really sure if they also have the internet. Sometimes, people love to misuse this facility and browse something that not good such as pornography because the internet don’t have the limits of information available. And it’s up to us to choose website that good for us.
Television also a good medium of communication as it broadcasted across the country and region. Unfortunately, compare to the internet, it is limited to the existence of coverage of the satellite. Sometimes, the signal is too weak and it make some of us don’t get the coverage. But in terms of information, television give us safer information as the contain of the information is suitable for all group of people. News also delivers in more interesting way and updated every second. But sometimes, some of the channel is not suitable for particular group because it is quite unsuitable for them and that’s why some station classified the programmed they provided. As example, 18SX for something that suitable for people under age because it contains sex scene and things like that.
Telephone is the most popular device as every one of us can afford to buy one. Hand phone become the most important device that we must bring every where because without it, it is difficult to contact each other. It is the fastest way to get connected to our friend with just the press of the keypads, we can send message to our friends and family. Cheer them up and tell how much we care about them. We can also contact them even when we are in another country but compare to internet, using hand phone cost more money because no money, no talk. That’s what my friend told me once.
To sum up, the development of technology enable us to communicate each other and it also make our life easier. But, make sure we use it for the right things. We are wise enough which is the best for us and sometimes, things that we like is not always good for us. Just think about it.
