Through modern technology it enables a party to further express beliefs, intentions and values with simple actions or behaviors.
Information can be encountered in different shape and sizes. These instances are: computer generated messages; creations through collective cut and paste; or artificial faces and voices. These are some of the forms of expressions or messages in the virtual world that users interpret pragmatically in the same way as with human-to-human conversation.
