Flaming; It's all the rage nowadays.

In class, we read Chapter 1 of our textbook and came across a word called "Flaming". In my own words, "flaming" would best be described as outputting emotions through text. For example, for anything on the internet that is casual (social networking sites, blogs, and internet messaging) or through texting, "flaming" is a part of the daily social life for teenagers and some young adults. A lot of us would like to get our feelings across, so "flaming" is one way to do so. With all capital letters, you can determine from the message whether the person is surprised, furious or excited. Professionally, we should not use "flaming" for it is inappropriate to address someone that way. Thanks to Chapter 1, we should all keep in mind not to do this to people of higher authority.

  1. Yes, now we know that "flaming" is another way or name when our emotions take over us when were communicating through text or email. And that we should avoid it.
