Unit 10 Assignment 3Task 1-Direct communication
Instant messaging
Instant messaging is a type of direct communication, it consists of users sending text
messages through apps. A stable internet connection is also required in case users are
sending messages through an app. A standard messaging app also comes installed in
modern area mobile phones, its advantages are that it doesn’t need an internet connection
as they are offered by the service provider depending on the plan. Instant messages is useful
as users can communicate with each other instantly anywhere they are in the country and
sometimes in Europe.
Video Communication
Video communication is a type of direct communication, it consists of users utilizing web
cams to communicate through a call or through a specific website/application offering video
communication. Video communication is very useful as users are able to communicate with
each other just like they would in real life on a one-to-one basis. Video communication
allows users to speak to each other through a microphone and listen to each other possibly
through headphones or any available audio output device. Another benefit of video call is
that consumers can see each other in real time even when being in different regions or even
countries.
Email is another type of direct communication, email accounts can be made through
providers such as yahoo, Microsoft and google, once a user has made an account he will
have a personal email account in the form ******@gmail.com, an email account can be
used to send emails to other users as well as receive them in the section called “inbox”.
Emails use protocols such as SMTP to function, users need to be connected to the internet
wirelessly or through wired connection in order to send and receive an email. Emails are the
best ways to communicate with companies/businesses/organisations as any other
communication method wouldn’t be suitable considering the high volume of clients, for
example if a business was to communicate with its clients through video communication it
wouldn’t be able to help all its clients because of the number of calls and the number of
staff available.
Web Phone
User can access the web through their mobile phones, and it is very helpful to allow direct
communication through the internet. There are lots of online forums and websites where
users can gather and discuss topics regarding anything they share In common. This feature
was not available to people before smartphones came across around 2005, the
development of these devices has changed the world and how we perceive it,
