The presentations of the self in the internet space

Abstract

Erving Goffman described how people trade identities during face to face interactions and make frames in which they get the meaning of these interactions. These concepts have influenced the way how Sociologists and Psychologists see the people's interactions. Inside my research subjetc - the Sociability of groups made from the Internet space - I intend to make questions and arguments about how the Electronic Communication has put a new reach in the frames of personal interaction, with the development of new standards and rules in the Presentation of Self.
