Public space is a common space aimed at social use, separate from the space reserved for private life. Communication technologies have outlined new ways of inhabiting both private and public space. In the private space, the traditional dimension of privacy has been abolished by a common desire for prominence. In public space, several forms of expressions of identity have emerged, producing new ways of communication. The Web shapes a new social space for dialogue where old and new techniques of influence interact, developing issues of common interest. What are the implications on public space, how do conversations affect the formation of public opinion, common feelings and collective will? Can we assume that this will create new forms of citizenship? The analysis requires us to overcome both the hypothesis of a mere solipsistic dispersion, and the idea of a palingenetic explosion of public participation
