Abstract

We are social beings and we have been creating networks since our inception. The network represents a new paradigm for social and economic development that has been called the "Network Society". People who use digital tools intensively are fragmenting their identity into multiple local and global networks. The social network services are a simplification and a restriction of the variety of social interactions. The combination of various Web 2.0 tools seems more interesting than the Facebook model.
