How have digital devices changed the way we communicate?

Every year, the technology changes, there is more and more new and better. If you compare the last few decades, you can see how much everything has changed. Some changes are for the better, and some for the worse. One area that has been hit hard by the advent of technology is the way we interact and communicate. Technology has literally changed the way we live. Especially drastic changes in the way we maintain communication, as well as relationships with people. However, we should understand that the use of digital and electronic inventions has both a negative and positive impact on our daily lives. The advantages include the fact that it is very easy and convenient to interact with our relatives, friends, educational organizations - by email, mobile phones, chat, etc. And also, we no longer need to visit a relative or friend to find out how they are doing or the latest news. Also, thanks to the Internet, people can make friends anywhere in the world. In addition to personal communication, official and business communications have become easier. For example, a company can offer you a certain position using email. Personally, I think that a true relationship between two people requires personal communication and time to really get to know each other. Real friendships can never compare to social media friendships. Since on the Internet, people mostly show only happy moments, without revealing themselves completely to others. In real friendships, people see each other at the best and worst of times and stay there for each other. I am sure that the Internet can not replace personal communication with friends or relatives. In conclusion, I would like to say that mobile phones, email, and social media have improved the way we communicate, and we can talk to anyone. Moreover, there are serious arguments for and against the use of new technologies, but, in any case, today it will be very difficult to imagine life without them.
