Novos diálogos: uma análise da sociabilidade entre os indivíduos que utilizam a internet na cidade de Macapá

Abstract

In this article, we seek to investigate sociability among individuals who use the Internet as a means of communication within contemporary societies. Starting from this point, with the technological transformations that take place during decades, it is sought to investigate its contribution to the new relations that arise because of the new means of communication. This verification will occur in the city of Macapá, with frequent users of the famous virtual Internet entertainment networks. The object of the research is to analyze, through interviews and observations, how individuals experienced these transformations in a decade, in which technology was a privilege for the few, and today, with the advancement of these technologies, how they use to communicate generating changes in their social environment.
