[1] E-mail may be the most important, unique method for communicating and developing relationships since the telephone. First of all, _____. Anyone who can use a word processor can also write an e-mail message without difficulty. Secondly, it saves time and money. It costs nothing more than your time. No paper expense, no postage, no envelope expense. People find it familiar and safe because it is similar in many aspects to writing letters-but minus the annoyances of addressing envelopes, licking stamps and trips to the mail box.      [2] Of all the methods for developing relationships on the Internet, e-mail is the most common-and perhaps the most powerful. Although friendship may indeed begin in chat rooms, instant messages, blogs or other environments, these relationships almost always expand into e-mail as a way to deepen the communication. It is a more private, more reliable, less messy way to talk. Even when other online tools improve greatly by becoming more effectively visual and auditory (听觉的)-as in video tele-conferencing-e-mail will not disappear. Many people will prefer it because it is a non-visual and non-auditory form of communication. After all, we don't see people rushing out to buy video equipment to add it to their telephone, even though that technology has been available for some time.      [3]E-mail is not just an electronic mail sent via the internet. It creates a psychological space in which pairs of people-or groups of people-communicate with each other. It creates a situation and boundary in which human relationships can unfold.
