7.4 Assignment

Here we go again! Alright so in the past weeks we have been covering Completing Business Messages and Messages for Electronic Media. Regarding the topic of Completing Business Messages, I have learned that its very important to revise and proofread everything. It also important to pay attention to the type of language and tone that is used. I also learned that writing is constant revision needed in order to improve readability. As well as taking length and clarity into consideration, because if the message is to long or short the needed feedback isn't going to be received. Clarity in the writing process is very important because its important to be able to get your message across the way you intend. Thanks to the internet there are tons of ways to communicate electronic messages such as email, text messaging, social networks and etc. My opinion has somewhat changed about social media. From my personal experience I always only used email, Facebook and text messaging  I never used twitter or payed attention to it because I thought it was completely useless. I am still not a big fan of twitter but I can see the benefits that it can bring. I also never tried blogging before this class, I am still getting used to it but I like the overall idea of it. I think that with blogging it gives more room to express your opinions and there is no limit on how many words you post as opposed to twitter. I think with twitter in particular you're limited but its still a very useful tool. I read both of the articles on how a Philadelphia company uses twitter to drive business and the article in Time Magazine how twitter and Facebook are a faster way to reach customer service as opposed to regular email. In this new day and age I can't image surviving without social networks because communicating via email and phone seems so last century. I think its sensational the power that social media holds with the ability to reach and influence so many people, that its scary. So if you agree or disagree respond below!
