Unit 14: Task 1: D2



D2
Justify the protocol transmission type you used. Ensure you find positive and negative aspects for the protocol and suggest a second way you could have sent the contact.


Talisha:
Larissa clicked on her contacts and then onto a specific contact name i.e Talisha; then held down on the contact and clicked 'send contact as V card  as Talisha has a HTC Phone, once that had appeared she clicked 'send contact_mail'. Once that's done the email showed up with the contact attached  once done filling in wanted details she sent them. Once it had been sent to Gmail it appeared with a sent email addressed to 09southt@gmail.com having the email and attached contact file, Also this was sent directly from an Iphone so at the end of the Email it mentions Sent from Larissa's Iphone. 

The positive aspects for this way of sending a contact this:
It is cheaper for the user due to it being free to send via email.
You are able to send more than 1 contact at a time or individually.
Very fast in sending files in large quantities.
The negative aspect for this way of sending is:
Some people are not in possession of the device or email address.
Sometimes there are issues with the device not receiving the files. 

Another way you could have sent this was by sending them directly from an email via computer to another computer so they are able to access it easier.
