"However, when users take up tools or artefacts
(e-mail, word processor, mobile phone, etc.) these
tools will tend to have an impact on the way they do
things. For example if I send you an e-mail I write
and communicate differently to sending you a paperbased
letter. Thus, according to this view, we need to
understand the impact that ICT has on social practices
as these tools are taken up and used in these
everyday practices and situations. For example, how
will communication with mobile phones change or
impact on, our social interaction, and possibly our
social relationships?"
