The mobile telephone is an invention which has extremely quickly become an integral part of everyday life and has definitively changed the habits of individuals. It became an obvious context of interaction and the observation of the methods of its use in different social groups allow the following of the process of the formation of new patterns of behaviour and social norms which have been created around this tool. The topic of discussion is in what manner the contacts maintained by the mobile telephone has influenced the shaping of social relations and the maintenance of social bonds in the conditions observed by theoreticians of the social process of individualisation. The possibilities of overcoming the spatial limitations which the mobile phone creates and above all the multiplicity of its functions and uses mean that it has a powerful potential for creating change.
