Keeping in touch.

In what ways do you communicate online?

I use the internet to communicate in so many varying ways, here are a few.

Whatsapp via my mobile phone to keep in contact with family, friends, colleagues, service providers, and more.

Emails to communicate with business, and do more official stuff that’s not really suitable to do in a casual way such as WhatsApp or Messenger. Things that I want to keep a written record of, I am deaf and don’t always find the phone easy as I can struggle to hear the other person, and follow a conversation.

Occasionally I’ll use video chat software on the laptop, mobile or other technology such as a Meta (Facebook) Portal. But I’m not a big user of video messaging.

Like most people I use social media to communicate with and keep in touch with people.

I also use some forums, and websites to exchange messages and information as well.

Mostly I’ll use my mobile phone, but for writing on here I vary between the phone and using the laptop.

What about you?
