7

Do computers and other electronic texting devices detract from or reduce the frequency of regular face-time conversations?

Are people using email and texting to the detriment of more personal oral conversation?

CONCLUSIONS:-

Here are some conclusions from current research.

First conclusion: “NO”Rather than conflicting with people's communities, we find that the Internet fits seamlessly with in-person and phone encounters. With the help of the Internet, people are able to maintain active contact with sizable social networks, even though many of the people in those networks do not live nearby. More, there is media multiplexity: The more that people see each other in person and talk on the phone, the more they use the internet."

(From the Pew Internet and American Life Project, The Strength of Internet Ties. 2006)

Second conclusion: YES

However, very different conclusions were reached by Professor Norman Nie and his colleagues at Stanford University, who concluded YES:

"The more time people spend using the Internet, the more they lose contact with their social environment . . .

As Internet use grows, Americans report they spend less time with family and friends, shopping in stores or watching television, and more time working for their employers at home - without cutting back their hours in the office. A key find of the study is that the more hours people use the Internet, the less time they spend with real human beings."

Examples

I know a fellow who spends 12-16 hours a day online running his internet business.

I know a number of parents who complain that their kids are online instead of playing outside with friends,

And a wife who says her husband goes directly to his computer when he arrives home to play interactive games with people he's never met.

And so it goes.

No Emotions:-

The main, old-fashioned point I want to make is this: Absent the cues of voice and body language, your text messages are relatively empty of emotion.

Video-conferencing with sound is better, and telephone is good

But only a face to face encounter will allow for the communication of the feelings.

SILENT MESSAGE:-

Of course, you should continue your emailing friends and relatives and business associates. The Internet is a helpful tool. BUT Just don't confuse a brief text message with a real-life encounter.

The first is relatively barren of feeling, but the second is rich. These two modalities are very, very different.
