Prompt: The use of social media is replacing face-to-face interaction among many people in society. Do you think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

Numerous characters deem the social media is threatening to our conventional person-to-person interaction, and the human communication might become extinct eventually; meanwhile, certain groups of people oppose and affirm the idea that the state of art is beneficial. In this essay, I will discuss firstly, the merit of social networks that made our daily lives more effortless, and negative aspects of this phenomenon, such as increasing number of grammatical errors, followed by a reasoned conclusion. Ċ On the one hand, thanks to the technological innovation, you can make contact with almost anyone, whenever you like, no matter where you are, which will save your time and effort, also it is almost free, which everyone is able to deploy it. All you need is a smartphone. For instance, in the past, if people wanted to make contact with someone living far away, they used to use old-time vehicles, as horse and chariot, which takes many days, even months, regarding where the person is, and it costs arm and leg. Hence, we should appreciate we got born in the modern age. Ċ On the other hand, online chat indeed gets followed by some drawbacks. One of these is verbal mistakes have become more common among the population, as we use skimpy languages frequently, while we are texting messages. For example, especially a young generation, using social media for more long hours compared to other age groups, make many silly grammatical mistakes in their schools and universities. Thus, some people abhor the cutting edge of technology, especially old people. Ċ To conclude, from the arguments and examples given, I firmly believe that the virtues of the modern communication system, like simplicity, surely outweigh the pros, as if writing mistakes. Therefore, I state again we should advocate the online chat.
