Answer :

Technology has revolutionized the concept of communication.It has brought in the market many gadgets to facilitate communication. This has escort to a considerable amend in the type of relationships that people have and largely this changes have been positive nevertheless there is a downside of this phenomenon as well.

The most noteworthy impact of technology is that the speed of communication has increased manifold and the cost has been plunged. In the pre-information technology days, a document often required retyping on the typewriter before the final version. Convey a document across to someone else required a visit to post office and a mandatory postage duty.Faster method such as telegrams and pagers had severe limitations in the text, ad remained costly.

Summing up, as every garden has weeds,similarly the effect of technology on communication has downside. overall the positive effects are far outweigh then the adverse effects.
