This article aims to study how the wide range of on-line communication services participates in the creation and maintenance of interpersonal relationships in the contemporary world. We investigate how the interrelation of the uses of different digital plataforms has been transforming sociability and conversational processes in the context of cyberculture, based on the articulation between theoretical and empirical perspectives on those subjects. Special attention is given to how people appropriate these services, combining them to achieve different relational purposes with diverse audiences in various time and places. Based on an empirical survey of 810 people — residents in the South and Southeast regions, over 16 years old and with at least incomplete higher education —, this article defines and discusses the phenomenon that it calls “fluid conversations”.Downloads
