When television was first invented, it received alot of bad critics. It was considered to contaminate the soul of viewers, to illusionize them with ideas of a fictional world, and to be a waste of time and money. Time itself has proven that those allegations were all wrong, and television soon became a phenomenon, a household appliance that can be seen in almost every house. Therefore, I think the same is happening to the E-mail. Ofcourse everything has its two sides, but in the case of e-mail, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.

People will say that email have alot of flaws and difficulties like: spamming, loss of password, having no sincerity and emotion.... But they are all not a big deal and can be either easily negated or fixed. However there are two main reasons why the disadvantages of email cannot outweigh the advantages:

Firstly, email is undeniably a great leap forward of technology because of its convenience. Imagine having relatives living abroad and you want to contact them. When writing a letter seems to be "sincere", "appreciative", there are alot of problems underneath. While you have to pay alot for stamps and transaction fee, you are taking a high risk of losing your letter on the way. If not, you are still annoyed by the long time it took for the letter to arrive and a new one to comeback. If you are sending a letter announcing that you are married, you will probably recieve the congratulation letter after you have already had a kid. Why would you want to do that, when with only a click, you can be relief to know that the email you want to send will be sent to the receiver.

Secondly, and this is the matter of common sense, is that email continues to not only exist, but to become a widespread mean of communication. Darwin evolution theory has stated clearly that, whatever that cannot adapt or cannot provide what its enviroment requires will be came extinct. This is true in the case of the e-mail because if the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, no one will use email and would have continued to write and send letters. The presence of email until today can only mean one thing: email is a means of communication that meets the requirements of even the most nostalgic person.

To conclude, email is definitely a major advancement of technology. Despite the inevitable picayune drawbacks, it had a huge positive impact on professional and social communication. The disadvantages of email, if exist, is only a bit of nostalgia or minor bugs that can be fixed. Email was, were and will play a vital role in the lives of people all around the world.
