1. Means of communication.

3. New technological devices.

A. When we think about modern means of communication, we cannot understand how people who lived some fifty years ago were able to keep in touch. Nowadays, with a mouse in one hand and a mobile phone in the other one, we cannot imagine human contacts without modern technology devices.

How do people communicate today?

Thanks to the new technologies people are communicating more than ever before. Modern means of communication have made the distance between people unimportant.

Unlike 20 years ago, we usually call someone, not visit. This traditional way of keeping in touch has suffered a lot as people choose quicker and easier phone calls. Mobile phones are portable and let us contact with others wherever they and we are. Furthermore, mobile phones offer the possibility of texting. Text messaging is the most convenient and the cheapest form of communication when we need to pass a quick note containing only a few words.

B. E-mails have replaced letters and postcards almost completely.

People prefer E-mails, which are quicker to write and send, and more sure to get to the addressee.

Business people do not need to travel to remote places to communicate with partners.

C. Zoom, Google Meet, Webex, and other software products are widely used for video conferencing, which makes it easier to connect for businesses.

D. To keep in touch with our families and friends that live abroad, we use video chats, chat-rooms and instant messaging. Thanks to them, we can talk with our relatives for free and without time limits.
