Communicating in SMS in text language, can have social downside compared to having a proper voice conversation - this is that is you are texting, it might have two meanings and could be taken the wrong way. It also not giving as much information and you can not show any feeling about the topic. Although the advantage is that it is quicker than a conversation, if you or them are busy at the time.
The social downsides to firing off a quick e-mail rather than having a short conversation - is that an email like an SMS is that you can't show any feelings and it may be interpreted wrong. Although there is an advantage to sending email is that it is quicker as you don't have to go and meet the person, you can also be more polite in and email than SMS, and you can add somebody else in to the email if needed whereas you can't if you are having a conversation and that person is not avaliable causing you to repeat and explain the situation.
