Overview:
Chat is used for synchronous (real-time)
electronic communications. Public and private
messages can be sent, and users can send
URLs to open web sites while chatting.
Chat works well for brainstorming and group
collaboration.
Chat does not work well with large groups.
Even in small groups, certain rules are
required to assist conversation and allow
anyone to participate.
Why Did Text Chat Become so
Popular?
Chat is a very important component of
the Internet.
Several people get addicted to it because:
First, you can find people who share similar
interests to yours wherever they are located.
In chat, people can choose their words carefully.
Freed from physical appearance descriptions( There
is no fat, skinny, short, tall, ugly, beautiful…etc.)
