Funcations of Communications-

Workplace Blogging: In addition to transmitting news, industry gossip and occasional rants, the best small business blogs offer interactivity, allowing readers to chime into the dialogue with their own bright ideas. This is also a great way to showcase a business's brand. This option is beneficial for both internal and external customers; it helps to keep everyone in the loop. Employers are able to share information with just a few clicks; information is shared at one time.  This new technology could lead to the elimination of email at some point.

Blogging generally has a friendly, informal look and feel. And you can reach a vast number of people with the press of a computer key.

A Blog can be private and for your staff only or it can be easily linked to other blogs in your company. This means that a lot of information can be shared quickly and efficiently.

It is easy for others to comment on blogs. However, if a blog is being used as a house organ to disseminate information, you will not want to allow comments. Office blogs should be published at regular intervals; if an office or company is large, a monthly publication will allow one to collect information for staff in a timely fashion.

Facebook: Sprung from its roots as a school-based social network to become the most popular social network in the world. A few keys to Facebook's success is its ability to appeal to both people and businesses, the success of Facebook's developers network which has turned Facebook into a thriving ability to reach out to the rest of the web and provide a single login that works across multiple sites. Facebook users get what they put into it.  There are some users who “update” their status several times throughout the day, and then there are also others who never post their status.  It of course is a personal choice as to how much information one feels comfortable sharing.

Facebook.com allows people to create a profile that includes personal information about that person, such as name, date of birth, past education and so on. Since so many people are a part of this network, it becomes very easy to find your old friends, even those whom you haven’t seen for many years. Once your friends are added to your network, you can post a message on your “wall” and all your connected friends are able to see it, reply to it, upload photos and so on.

Text Messaging: The service allows for short text messages to be sent from one cell phone to another cell phone or from the Web to another cell phone.

These days, it is one of the most liked features of the mobile phones. People from all ages especially the teenagers really like it. They consider it as the most convenient and the cheapest form of keeping in touch with the people around them. Mobile phone networks have been taking advantage of the tremendous support and patronage shown by the SMS population.

Generally, it keeps a person updated and informed since you can carry a light device anywhere you go. For the deaf, it gives them that sense of independence and freedom. It provides them away from the linguistic and geographic barriers. They are able to be like the common people when it comes to communicating with the people they want to keep in touch with.

Text messaging is fantastic for those who don’t have time to carry on a full-fledged conversation. A simple “be there soon” or a “can’t talk” gets the message across quickly and succinctly. This is a perfect function for those who are not able to have a “full” conversation.  It allows for brief interaction.  I use text messaging on a daily basis.

Smartphone Applications:  Smartphone apps have been created to solve a problem, increase productivity, while providing entertainment. Apple's IPhone store alone has more than 150,000 apps available for download and users have downloaded more than 3 billion apps.

Applications have made existence and connectivity in the world far easier than it was before. Through the usage of good Smartphone Applications, we can stay connected to all interesting news and updates from any specific domain whatsoever. Anyone is able to create an application, and then cell phone customers are able to search for their bank, school or local weather forecast.

A viable solution to distinguish any business from the rest is by creating a customized smartphone app that quickly connects prospective customers directly to the business.  These sophisticated apps allow companies to communicate with potential customers in a way that is increasingly becoming the preferred means of communication. 

Smartphone offers easy access to relevant information. At the present time, many businessmen or young culture are using this latest technology to manage their business or personal information properly. You can easily get access to your important details and files through smart phones apps.
