Zusammenfassung
Uninterrupted and ubiquitous hyperconnection is mediating in many of contemporary individual life interactions, becoming the natural way of being in the world and leading to new forms of sociability for those who have regular access and the skills to use the Internet. Virtual sociability could be seen as a framework for rethinking forms of sociality in the digital environment. The changes that technological innovation has brought about in social interactions affect scenarios and processes, transforming the relationships established between the actors (liquid), the way in which subjects show themselves and interact with others (from flexible identities), and enabling the formation of new affiliation practices and social bonding (virtual communities).
