It's interesting to see the transition of our written communication over time as technology improves. The trend seems to be going towards face to face communication, but with words; the latency is being decreased, and the intuitiveness is being increased. Also, it is getting more informal, perhaps because formality was primarily a function of the difficulty in communicating, a response is more likely to be refined if it is the only response you will be sending for a month.
