Resumen:
Sumario:If social networking services have transformed the public space, they have not done it by messing and fragmenting. In fact, those features already characterized the functioning of the public before Facebook and Twitter came to reconfigured public sociality and the practices of political socialization, such as media outlet consumption. This article intends to reflect on this tension between what remains and what is modified in the contemporary public space from the consolidation of digital platforms. For that, it raises two dimensions of analysis (the ontological and the sociological) and contrasts certain current characterizations with some prominent features of public space already described before the era of technologically codified sociability.
