The aim of this article is to evaluate how computer-mediated communication is used inthe process of becoming and being a minimalist by reconstructing and examining some ofits key aspects. In the first part, I concentrate on the definitions of minimalism composedby bloggers, in the second part, I analyse the importance of blogs in the minimalist lifestyle,in the third part, I explore online and offline relationships built by minimalists. Eachsection is illustrated with fragments of text from two chosen blogs about minimalism.Finally, I examine two models of communication – consultation and conversation – thatare essential in the context of minimalism.
