Define: Communication


When people born, they realized that they need each other, they are connected each other, and they need to communicate.

 

Of course, the first kind of communication is verbal communication, which using our voices. Someone said, that words that coming out from our mouth only represent 10% of the communication, the rest is our body language (how we move when we say it, the intonation, etc).

Then people are moving, and voice can't reach to far place. Then, they found "Letter". So you can write, and others can read. But, sometimes, the readers can misunderstand. Probably because, words only represent 10%.

After that, Telephone was founded. Now, people from far place can hear others' voice from far place. But the invention wasn't stop.

WWW (read: internet) was found, and maybe its a biggest communication invention. You see, people interact with computer (for hours), and internet make computer connected. It means that people in front of computer can communicate, and internet is around the globe. 

At first, chat was founded, but it was not like nowadays chat. Then, email. And maybe, the nowadays chat. At last, Skype. Skype make phone call is free, we can see other people face around the globe, see what their doing, see their body language. It almost like you meet the person. And it almost what I can say 100% communication. Well, that's what it called Video Call. 

Actually, what you've read is only the introduction. What I want to share is the communication in this day. When technology make people easier to interact/communicate, the people itself makes it hard communicate.

For example, when you are texting/sms-ing you probably would shortened the words. If words only represent 10%, how much shortened words would represent.

Another example:

"add me...homsach_virgirl@yahoo.com LißuR ßT nehH...d0mpet 6 tipiS...m0 jLn bren9...tkt ment0X...xm5'an..klw gx ma ch0 rese..gx smangat...tp 6 bahagya k0o..aD s0ßat skali9us kk 6 trsayan9...M...R...S..."

I got this from a shoutout of a person that added me on friendster, this is what I called "Hard Communication". Somehow this makes me hard to understand. I believe if she use regular words, only alpahabet (not numeral that replacong some alpahabet) it will be a lot lot lot easier for me to understand.

Some people say it is "Gaul" when you do things like that. But why you say "Gaul" if its hard to communicate.

And, that sort of things became joke of mine and my friends. And we don't think it is "Gaul" but, "Kampung".

Well, the conclusion is, technology make us easier to interact between each other, from voice, words, photos, videos we can make people around the globe read, hear, and see it. So, let's not make it becaming hard again.

 

Gotta get some sleep..
