Five Forms of Text

Social Media:

Social Media is made up of many different forms of communication.  Some you post pictures only, some you post pictures and post, and others you just post short post but all of them is a form of text.  It is a way to present information to the public.  Social Media is an informal way to share information with the public but is a very effective mean of communication. 

Email:

Email is a very popular way to communicate more personal information.  It can be a formal and informal way to send messages to just one individual or a group of individuals.  Emails can be a short, or brief way to communicate textual information between people. 

  

Text Messages:

 Text Messaging today is one of the most popular ways to communicate.  It is a quick and easy way to tell someone something very quickly.  Most people in today’s society do not even call each other anymore.  Texting is more practical you can tell someone information in an environment where talking is not allowed.

Advertising:

 Advertising is a great form of text.  It shows quick and short bits of information that portray a message.  It does not solely relay on text though, along with text, visuals add to it and tell you what you need to do or buy or eat.  Advertising is everywhere and really is such a strong form on communication because it has influences on what we do everyday. 

Mail:

When I say Mail I mean letters and bills.  This form of communication is more formal.  When you get mail it is usually something very important because it is a hard copy and you can physically hold it.  Communicating through mail is a way to present text to individuals whether it is bills or information regarding credit cards or home insurance.
