As technological advance has eased our way of communication traditional way of communication is less and less demanded by majority of public. I strongly agree with this statement.

In the past fifty years, technology has developed significantly and it diversified way of communication. Dating back to 1980s a major tool for communication was a letter and a telephone. After the old era, we have obtained a mobile phone, email and SNS (Social Networking Service). While the old tools were supported for many years before the technological advance, it had lots of cons such as length of time and inconvenience. Modern communication tools solved all these disadvantages that the old tools had. We no longer need to wait for receiving a response for your inquiry and it is much more convenient. Therefore, in many cases people do not write a letter because they save time and do more tasks. In fact, in most business situations, email is more acceptable than writing a letter. Only in some situations a letter is more regarded for example when signing on contract or in other legal matters. We also still write a letter in a special occasion such as invitation for wedding or important meetings. But in general it is no longer required to write a letter.

In conclusion, I strongly agree that due to a diversification of way of communication, majority no longer needs to write letters. Instead, we have more convenient tools including email, a mobile phone and SNS. Although there is a special occasion that we may write a letter but currently the modern communication tools are more widely used.
