The Christian Science Monitor has a piece on why it's so easy to misinterpret emails. From the article: 'First and foremost, e-mail lacks cues like facial expression and tone of voice. That makes it difficult for recipients to decode meaning well.

Finally, the inability to develop personal rapport over e-mail makes relationships fragile in the face of conflict.
