Abstract
In this paper we analyze blogs, virtual communities and places of serendipitous interaction as tools for interaction and self-presentation. The purpose of the paper is to further the understanding of these interaction concepts as social tools and to provide an aid for developers of systems incorporating interaction such as e-learning systems. We find that the three interaction concepts provides for very dissimilar modes of interaction and support for impression management and as developers of social systems it is critical to understand these modes and how they can be used.
