Social interface

Social interface is a concept from social science.
It can be approached from a theoretical or a practical perspective.
As a concept of social interface theory, social interface is defined by Norman Long. In 2001 his revised definition was:
In other words, interfaces are the areas in which social friction can be experienced and where diffusion of new technology is leading to structural discontinuities, the interface is where they will occur. Long continues to say that:
Identifying these interfaces and analyzing their effects shows how they are changed by everyday life, and how in return everyday life is changed by the interfaces.
