This study examines the relationship between individual social capital and online participation in neighborhood of residents in a metropolitan city. Based on quantitative data collected through a modified version of the Resource Generator questionnaire among 9 063 residents of Warsaw, the impact of resources embedded in personal networks on online discussions on local issues is evaluated. It is found that resources in personal networks, perceived by  respondents as embedded but not mobilizable, negatively influence online talks focus on neighborhood. However, this impact turns into positive when they are able to mobilize resources available through social ties. Although some scholars suggest that social capital in the neighborhood declines, this study shows that neighbors remain considerable source of mobilizable resources affecting online discussions on local issues. Moreover, it is established that fact of being raised indigenously, relations with neighbors and trust in them may encourage urban residents to participate in neighborhood by discussing local issues online.

Despite appearing in different forms with multiple endemic functions in digital peer contexts, prior research is engrossed with a focus on the Like and Share buttons. Therefore, it pays scant attention to the remaining social button variants, which are brought into play by users on a day-to-day basis in the social web. Addressing this lacuna, this study seeks to contribute to our understanding of the online buttonised usage phenomenon, by examining social buttons usage in the context of the Letgo consumer-to-consumer online marketplace. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 17 ‘Letgoers’ and online participant observation, the study shows that social buttons represent an enabling and facilitation mechanism, which temporarily eliminates the digital user need (i.e., orthographic need) to type and retype. This conduction culminates in specific user behaviour, which is motivationally shaped by the digital need – least effort – fulfillment equation. The study further claims that while peer-to-peer marketplace activity on Letgo necessarily involves user participation, it is alienated in the sense that the buttonised process is beyond the reach of Letgoers’ knowing and meaningful (digital) intervention. Hence, it should rather be understood as a practice of delegation to algorithmic conduction.

Within the last few years, social media have emerged and offer network possibilities for political communication. There are large expectations of social media in campaigning and many politicians turned to such networks in the 2010 Swedish election. In spite of the high level of internet penetration and use in Sweden, people seem reluctant to go online for politics. Survey data collected in an e-panel was analyzed with a focus on social media to reveal to what extent internet users contact politicians, the information value of these channels and what users expect from politicians during campaigning. Even among frequent users such as the e-panel members, involvement in politics and politicians in social media is rather low. People tend to view social media as an information channel for politics rather than a conversation medium. Politicians should respond to questions if requested, but not assume the position of friends in peoples’ networks.
