Thoughts on Chapter 6.

If email is free, instant and doesn't require the sender and the receiver to be synchronized with one another why is it that at times I hate it? I feel like no matter what when things are written they can be read incorrectly in terms of tone. This summer I experienced the longest distant relationship I ever had with Alex in China and me in NY and while using email I felt like I never knew how the other person was truly feeling. You can never pick up on little things like attitude and sarcasm or little jokes. Don't get me wrong I am thankful for having multiple ways of communicating, especially in these situations, I'd just rather video chat or talk on the phone when it comes to the important stuff.
