Journal #2: Digital Communication

What I found most surprising about digital communication is all the different ways you can do it. There isn't just one way you can communicate digitally, there are lots of different ways from email to using a social media to communicate to someone. A couple things I learned about email etiquette is that using bold letters and not answering as soon as possible can be rude and make the other person mad cause they can't see how you're feeling with your face movements or the sound of your voice. Another thing I learned was that if you don't title your email it may never be read and just be put into their junk mail. Blind carbon copy, a copy of an email sent to a recipient without the recipients address appearing in the email. You could use blind carbon copy for security and privacy reasons. I think the most important thing for young people to consider when they're communicating digitally is that because you're not talking to them in person, the thing you say may not turn out the way you wanted it to and they could think it's rude. Double checking what you wrote could help fix these possible mistakes.
