The technology has bring so goods to us and making communication fast and secure is also one such addition. If you look back then 20 years back the main mood of distance communication was writing letters. It took many days or weeks to reach the letter to receiver based on the distance it travels and suppose if the receiver want to reply the letter then it took another couple of weeks to complete the cycle. In today worlds this can be happened in just friction of seconds using the E- Media. If you told all this to a kid of today's generation then he must be surprised and most probably will be laugh. In today word the letter comes only for any official work or government letter work.

The mobile phone are one of the fantastic technology of the era. Its more then just a mode of communication. If I talked about the mode of communication using the mobile phone then it may be voice or the written in the form of texting. During my collage days I was using the texting a lot. It has two major reason - first reason was cheap rates of texting and second was, it was fun tot talked to each other.
It was the time when the smart phone was not available so the internet was limited to the PC and laptops only. The texting for mobiles was comes with the bundle when we recharge the monthly packs. It was very cheap as compare to the voice calls. Even the companies were offering the separate recharge packages which were enabling only texting on phones. It was like unlimited texting per month massages, so you can imagine how cheap it was. We were forwarding the jokes, sharing the joy and fun moments etc all day on the phone using the test messages. Those were the days when the texting becomes the main source of communication among the students. It was fun also when we shared the different activities and reply each other.

The things get changed when the smart phones comes into market, the text messaging was also getting evolve and new applications like whatsapp were comes into picture. The text messaging shape was changing and it was replaced with the applications using the internet for sending messages. That was the time I completed the collage and started the professional journey. At that time I do not feel much excitement in the texting. The texting messages were replaced with the official messages and official communication.
Now days I used the whatsapp app for making text messages mostly and I do not feel to use any other application for such activities. This the medium of communication for me with family & friends and official matters as well. The easy of use and the instant response make it very effective mode. The best part is yo can use it any were and anytime, and along with text message we are free to share the pictures and video content also, which make is more effective and add fun part also in it. On every occasion let it be new year or religious day I found it one of the effective way to wish my known and well wishers. The business communication become more easy and fast, customer can shared his feedback instantly and also get the solution also very quickly. Its one of the best way for discussions and sharing the Knowledge.

no doubt the technology changed a lot in last decade and the text messaging though a basic phone has evolved into high tech messaging application. This is very effective but I do not like some people who just some to group for saying good morning and good night. They are like the door keepers who opened the door in the morning to say good morning and and close the doors with good night lol. Some time their are some occasions where the text messaging is more effective then the verbal communication and some time the verbal communications more effective then the text messaging, so its all depends on the situation and us but the thing meters is it should be understandable to both the parties - senders as well as the receiver.
