Networks and Comuunication

Communication technology has affected our lives tremendously that we became less interested in one to one communication.The various types of communication technologies became part of our life that most of us cannot live without them.Actually, thinking about the importance of communication technology ,one might question if there are any disadvantages to what we consider today as being part of our daily lives.Most of us will agree that emails, texting ,skype, or facetime can provide us with convenience.We can attend a meeting over skype , send emails to a wide variety of people and companies,or even meet with our friends and family overseas without having to leave our house or drive .When we talk about working from home using communication technology: not having to follow a specific schedule ,dress code ,or wait for a break to taste a bite from a delicious sandwich we are talking about convenience. Also ,communication technology might allow us to prevent serious consequences.A simple quick phone call to the police or fire department  might  save lives,or a message at a lighting speed might  help us and save us from a big trouble.However, the same message written while driving or walking in the mall can cost us a life or a serious injury .In the article"Texting woman falls in fountain ,files lawsuit,"the woman who was video taped could have a serious injury when she falls in the fountain simply because she was not paying attention while texting and walking at the same time. This shows how communication technology might have some disadvantages if not used properly or with attention.A text message can be a distraction from whats going on at that time ,which can cause serious consequences.In addition, a text message or email can be out of context ,which can lead into miss-communication.Also,emails can be a spam that leads to a crime committed against a child .So, having both advantages and disadvantage, one needs to be really careful while using communication technology to prevent a wide range of problems.For instance, one needs to stop sending messages while driving or walking without paying attention ,or use other types of technology such as the option of siri available in some iphones. This siri option can help send a message or even dial a number without you having to distract yourself by typing.In addition, to solve spam problems ,one might need to keep there mind active and there children protected through parent control alerts and try to be a friend with there children ,so they can tell the parents whats going on or if someone is trying to meet them somewhere.Also, o prevent spam on emails one can download different types of security system that will filter emails and send spams to a spam box.
