Answer 4

This answer relies on the writings of Marshall McLuhan and his differentiation between the medium being used and the message that it sends. In other words, the medium conveys a message, in voice, or text, or whatever the message is composed in. The medium used in itself also conveys its own message, no matter the content. And the medium's message is different from the content of the message.

For example, the telephone. If I call you, the message of the medium that I am using (the telephone) (not the content) says: "STOP RIGHT NOW! STOP WHATEVER YOU ARE DOING! I WANT YOU TO PAY ATTENTION TO ME AND ONLY ME! ANSWER THIS CALL RIGHT NOW!"

For example, the e-mail. If I send you an e-mail, the message of the medium that I am using (e-mail) (not the content) says: "hey, I have a question for you, or I have some information that I want to share with you. But I know that you are busy, so do get back to me soon with an answer or response when you can, when you have time." Nettiquette (the code of conduct for the Internet) suggests within 24-48 hours.

The content of both messages send via these media could be "I just bought us a boat!" or "I've been promoted!" or "I just read the greatest book!".

The important formulation of this answer (and other answers in this section to related questions about IT media) are most easily understood by separating the message of the medium from the messsage of the content.

That is the most important concept here is to separate the message of the medium from the message of the content.
