Blogger
In early 90’s internet forum software called “WebEx”, have created a running conversation on a corkboard. The modern blog developed from online diary where people were commenting on their personal lives/ experience they been through a specific day. Justin Hall is known as the earliest blogger. In 1994 “Wearable Wireless Webcam” was invented this software was allowing people to post their videos and pictures.
It’s the 2012, now days “Blog” are used as a person profile. People are expressive themselves by writing up there memories, maybe their hobbies what they are interested in most of the time the blogger is just telling his day then the blogger not much of a change apart for the fact that blogs are much easier to use and anyone can how it. You have to remember if you publish your blogger it can be view by anyone. Not only private people are using the blogger but also business, it is very easy way of advertisement, but it is really affective?
There are a lot of different web browsers who are allowing you to create a Blog. Some of them are created just for blogs. For example “Tumblr” or “Twitter” all you do it posting new posts where you are, who you with, what you doing there is not online private chats, once you post everyone can see it.
I don’t have my personal blogger but I’m using one for school. Although I have a friend who has one and she loves it, it a nice way of telling people what are your interest and meeting people who are interested in the same thing as you are. I also see a blog as it is a nice way for people who aren’t really social to have an opportunity to open in front of a people they don’t know.

Social networking

First social network was invented in 1994 was called “GEOCITES”.

 With out Social network it wouldn’t be as easy as it is now to communicate around the world. Social networking explode into one of the biggest industries of our time.  Social networking are like Facebook or Twitter. Social network is made to share information with your friends like what we eat, where we shop and what are we watching on television. Not only that you can share these information but also they are provided with online service which helps you to chat with your friend whenever you want to it’s like a mini IM, you can also now have a online video chat.
Social networking has took a very big part of people life I personally think, e communities are very addictive and people don’t think really about time while they using it, but on the other hand some people have a problem to open in real life and when they’re on such a network  service they can finally be their self.
IM (instant massaging)

IM is existing since 1990. It’s a form of a communication by internet. If only a person downloads this application to him PC or other devices, is able to use it. IM is usually used by teenagers to chat with their friends. It can be a chat between two people but also if they would like they can make thing called conference which then contain more then two people. IM it’s basically a real-time online chat. IM can be updated, at the beginning it was only a peer-to-peer conversation then more than two and now you can also have a voice chat or video chat. It’s amazing how technology has moved on it very short period of time.
We have now a lot of different IM’s although some of them are more known and some of then are rarely used. There’s just few business that actually using the IM most of them prefer email.

I personally was using one of the IM when I was 14 so that was 4 years ago, I don’t really remember how it happened that I’ve stopped but I reckon it was because technology has come up with a lot of different ways how I could communicate with my friends but before it happened I remember spending so much time online talking to my friends. It was the easiest, the quickest and the cheapest way to have a long chat with friends. Some of my friends still have the IM but then are not using it as often.
E-mail

E-mail has been invented in 1965 by Louis Pouzin, Glenda Schroeder and Pat Crisman, although this service was only working between 2 people using the same personal computer but there was no e-mail address just then. In 1971 e-
mail has been develop by Ray Tomlinson from then on e-mail could be sent to people on different computers. Ray Tomlinson also invented sign “ @ “ to separate user name from the website name.
E-mail is the most widely used Internet application. There’s a fair chances that now most of the people YOU know between the ages of 15 and 65 have and use an e-mail. For all of its popularity, e-mail is often used ineffectively. People are setting up emails to be able to set up some other network service. 
E-mail is also inexpensive. By this I mean it allows you to send a message to more than one person, and also it save you time plus it’s free you can use it when ever and wherever you want only if you have a wireless.
By using e-mail your communication can be edited and even spell check so there’s no mistakes in your spelling, before a recipient will read your massage.
You can send email to more then one person at once. It saves you so much time. Can you imagine sending the same email to few people at the same time but you would have to type in everything again and again? Email is very understandable and friendly so we don’t have to waste our time.
Email is an effective communication service for business and private use but it also has some disadvantages.
Email is more often used by business to communicate although it’s the easy and quick way of communication the problem is that e-mail massages can be misunderstand fairly easily. That’s why it’s very important to put the case in very easy words. As it is not face-to-face conversation or a phone call.
Also another disadvantage of email is the fact that by email attachments you can transfer a virus into your personal computer; if it’s a business cooperation it might not only effect one PC but also other PC’s. 

2012, these a day’s e-mail is not use as often there was a time when e-mail was used by everyone and it was the main social communication between two or more people. Although it is important to point out if you want to set up new account for a example “Facebook” account you have to be provide with an e-mail because e-mail is the main massager service for example if you forget your facebook password you might ask to resent the password to your e-mail. I personally don’t use e-mail, most of the e-mails I received are ads my email is full of advertisements. This is the easiest way for the business to communicate with customers online. I personally don’t read these massages but if a customer knows the brand and is interested in what the business has to offer, I’m sure they would read it.
