All new to this stuff, missing the old ways of writing letters?

Question

Although I have been here for a week and have had the computer for a while I still can't grasp the impersonal way of the EMAIL. Is there anybody who would like to start sending email for a while and eventually write letters as a penpal with paper pens envelopes and stamps?

Answer 1

i do have have met people via email and now some have choose to go back to the old time wrtting letters i have friends from the usa and canada and germany i feel its great so nice to get a letter that someone really took time to write and send....

Answer 2

Email is as impersonal as driving in a car. You're in your cocoon, and respond often without consideration for other's extenuating circumstances. I try my best to write in the same way I would a letter. I think it's a problem for the whole of society these days, too much communication without hearing what you're saying.
