The Impact of the Internet on Interpersonal Communication

　　As is shown in the picture, when a dad asks his daughter how wasschool today?， his daughter would rather tell her father to readall about it on her blog than inform him face to face. Thisphenomenon demonstrates that internet communication is changing thetraditional face to face communication.

　　What is the impact of the internet on interpersonal communication?Initially, it prevents people from face to face communication. Forexample, some students would better send messages to theirclassmates to express themselves rather than talk to them directly.Furthermore, the internet communication is making people lose theirregular and necessary communication skill. Take my friend Jack asan example. He is popular online due to his insightful thought andprominent writing skill. But in his daily life, he is so shy thathe cannot talk to others.

　　Internet, from my perspective, does harm to our interpersonalcommunication. And we should place much emphasis on face to facecommunication。
