What is considered private domain and what is considered public domain ? it has become blurred because of the advent of internet. you can choose to expose/be yourself but you take the risk of others taking advantage. Where do you draw the line ? Its a fact that people nowdays are using blogs and other means in the internet to communicate,express themselves and put their opinion across.

Relationships have also taken new dimensions. Whether its business,political or personal-the emails/smsses have change the way things are done. There are advantages-since you can get across your message n a reply in an instant. Sometimes miscommunication do occur because different people have different level of command of the language,yes the general meaning is there,but the art of reading between the lines depends a lot on one's command of the language.

For instance, although my English is not the best around-my brothers would kill me for my grammar,tenses and spelling. I think,speak,dream in English ! I hardly speak in BM and find it difficult to express myself. Its not that i dont or cant speak bahasa,its because i went through a school system from primary one till form five in English. My undergraduate and post graduate studies were overseas and ive work umpteen years in the private sector.

So when i communicate to most people today, i sometimes wonder whether we are talking about the same thing ! The general ideas get across but the subtle message is lost which is sometimes critical to the whole message. when i do presentatation to an audience its a bit easier because you can judge the audience perception thru their expression but when your are e mailing there some information lost. Yes ?

Then there is the personal relationship,because of hectic schduel people do communicate more through emails/sms etc. Just look at teenagers nowdays they can even type without looking at the keypad...
