How online communication shape the ways in which people interact with each other

The internet allows people to keep closer touch with distant family members and friends, and to find information quickly. The internet is replacing vital day-to-day human interactions. Like many technologies, the internet has lulled people up with its novelty and convenience, which will create a sense of dependency.
The internet allows you to keep in touch with family and friends. Even though email is informal, it is a lot faster than the snail type mail. The internet also allows people to access rich educational and cultural resources that are otherwise unavailable to most people or may take much longer to locate at the library. They can obtain current and up-to-the-minute information. From a simple email to the complex of world of virtual communities, the internet allows people to communicate with each other. People all around the world break the boundaries of time, distance and identity by conversing with one another in various chat rooms. Unlike the face-to-face communications though, the participants of the chat rooms only use words to communicate with each other; the participants are unable to see the non-verbal cues that are an integral part of face-to-face communication. It is also due to the speed. 
Internet means a network of networks, a super highway that links online services and computer networks at companies, universities and government agencies all around the world. Internet usage has become very popular within the past few years. It is used for entertainment, communication and resources. It has become an important tool which many people have in their homes and children as well as adults are able to use it. The internet plays a very important role in technology today, however, there can be many negative aspects of internet usage which can lead to addiction. Internet Addiction Disorder is a big threat to users. It has symptoms that can mislead your life, family and job. Some symptoms users have are anxiety, psychomotor agitation and persistent desire to go on the net. The internet is rapidly becoming an addictive source. The users may not be aware of this since it begins slowly. the addiction begins innocently.
And finally, the internet junkies are unlike the addicts in the previous two groups, neither sneak online nor make excuses to get online. Once you have entered the chat room, other fellow chatters may say hello. Today's youth lives with the internet as a daily part of their lives. People who become addicted to use the internet to relieve or avoid withdrawal symptoms, which are similar to those brought on by the abrupt withdrawal from drug use. These symptoms are negative aspects of the Internet usage. Help is unavailable. But don't get yourself tangled into the addiction. The user may not be aware of this since it begins slowly. You may even make a daily habit of it. Some of these users spend a minimum of thirty-eight hours per week on the net; hence, losing touch with reality and wreaking havoc on their studies, families' lives, and even their careers. I think people have been found to carry out exactly the same behavior, not only in Nepal, but also throughout the world. It is avoidable, but still many people fall into the addictive track, just as if it is smoking, drinking or any other habitual behavior. IAD has become so prevalent those psychiatrists have had to address the disorder with a name and symptoms.
