I am self-employed in an industry that requires much online communications because my services are available across the province and to save on long distance charges, I use MSN, email and other related forms of computer records and log them to retain an electronic memory of such communications to ensure steps as agreed to are followed. I don't think we will forget how to talk face to face. I think much of my electronic communication work does result in more face to face meetings, as I have been able to acquire a substantial number of clients this way - more than I would have if I left it up to local advertisement alone.

Yes, I do, but you can also use technology for video conferencing and have voice chat through some messenger programs like aim. Human interaction face to face will never be completely ruled out though.

I think that this is really not a question of will we forget how, because its not that hard. just a matter of, will we bother. i dont think it is possible to forget howto speak face to face, as long as there is alanguage that the person understnads. and, without a language, then u cant talk on the internet either.
