"5 TYPES OF COMPUTER                                                   COMMUNICATION"

The Internet provides users with multiple means of communicating. Users may communicate with friends, colleagues, news reporters, editors and even strangers. Today there are more ways to reach out to people who were traditionally difficult to contact. As technology advances, the means of Internet communications becomes increasingly convenient and varied.

Social Networking

  

Members of social networking sites are able to send messages, comments, links, articles and pictures to other members of the site. Communication is not just between the sender and receiver, it is also available to other members who have access to browse your site. These other members may also make comments. This type of relationship is known as an Internet community.

Online Phone Calls

Skype.com is a website dedicated to providing online phone calls to other Skype members. This type of communication is known as Skype-to-Skype calling. Users communicate once they have downloaded the Skype software program from the Skype website. Skype also allows users to make video calls, through which users can see each other as they talk. Skype allows members to make low, per-minute Skype calls to landlines and cell phones.

Emails

Email, also known as electronic mail, not only allows you to communicate with other email users, but it also is a way to receive, for example, newsletters, coupons, daily inspirational quotes and job postings. Registered users have the ability to save drafts and past important emails for future reference.

Blog and Vlog

Blogging is a writer's way of expressing his thoughts, ideas, and social and political views online. Bloggers communicate to readers, who in turn make comments and send their links to other readers. Some bloggers gain notoriety through building a devout group of readers. Once bloggers have a following, they may be contacted by sponsors or they may propose sponsorship to interested companies. For instance, a food and wine blogger may obtain sponsorship from restaurants, food and wine magazines or online publications.

Vlogs are the same concept as blogs, except vlogs are digitally recorded. You can create a vlog on a digital video camera, digital camera, or cell phone. Video can then be uploaded onto your computer and shared with viewers.

Speak Out Loud

Online forums or message boards are an interesting way for participants to express their knowledge or views of a particular subject. Participants may speak, for example, on issues like new political agendas, their favorite sports teams or discuss their concerns about new technology. Message boards range from home improvement to medical experiences and procedures.
