Social network sites such as Facebook are often conceived of as purely social spaces while there is growing evidence that they may serve as a powerful tool in communication and creating digital citizenship. Moreover, studies show that Facebook can be used in mobilising social participation. In this paper I will try to answer the following questions: does Facebook help make good citizens? Does it help to understand democracy? Is Facebook a real or only a virtual community?
