Modalities of communication for human beings are gradually increasing innumber with the advent of new forms of technology. Many human beings canreadily transition between these different forms of communication with littleor no effort, which brings about the question: How similar are these differentcommunication modalities? To understand technology$\text{'}$s influence onEnglish communication, four different corpora were analyzed and compared:Writing from Books using the 1-grams database from the Google Books project,Twitter, IRC Chat, and transcribed Talking. Multi-word confusion matricesrevealed that Talking has the most similarity when compared to the other modesof communication, while 1-grams were the least similar form of communicationanalyzed. Based on the analysis of word usage, word usage frequencydistributions, and word class usage, among other things, Talking is also themost similar to Twitter and IRC Chat. This suggests that communicating usingTwitter and IRC Chat evolved from Talking rather than Writing. When wecommunicate online, even though we are writing, we do not Tweet or Chat how wewrite books; we Tweet and Chat how we Speak. Nonfiction and Fiction writingwere clearly differentiable from our analysis with Twitter and Chat being muchmore similar to Fiction than Nonfiction writing. These hypotheses were thentested using author and journalists Cory Doctorow. Mr. Doctorow$\text{'}$sWriting, Twitter usage, and Talking were all found to have very similarvocabulary usage patterns as the amalgamized populations, as long as thewriting was Fiction. However, Mr. Doctorow$\text{'}$s Nonfiction writing isdifferent from 1-grams and other collected Nonfiction writings. This data couldperhaps be used to create more entertaining works of Nonfiction.
