Relevance of the research: the Relevance of this article is to understand the revolutionary changes taking place in everyday communication in the era of Informatization, both at the level of global trends and at the level of everyday practices and meanings, as the information society is characterized by the lack of authority, stability, clear rules, social patterns that can be followed. It is thoroughly imbued with the idea of multi-variance and extreme individualization. The aim of the study is to analyze the process of transformation of everyday communication under the influence of the Internet among students. Research methods: the Leading method for the study of this problem is the interview method, which allows analyzing the process of transformation of daily communications of young people under the influence of new media, to establish the impact of Internet technologies on communication and connection with the close environment. Results: The article describes the main theoretical approaches to the definition and problems of new media. The role of new media and the Internet in the context of the information society is analyzed. The influence of new media on everyday communication practices of students-Internet users is defined. The daily practice of communication of young people is described. The novelty and originality of the study is that it is shown that among young people there is an active desire for personal communication and contrary to all expectations, the use of social networks for professional purposes (dialogue with colleagues) and entertainment (watching videos, listening to audio). Users of this age group actively use the opportunity to produce their lives on a personal page in various social networks, posting photos of significant pleasant events, themselves in a decent appearance and surrounded by acceptable-looking people. It is found that social networks are actively used by informants to track the events of the personal life of other users familiar to them in the real space. Users see great advantages in the presence of remote technologies that allow them to communicate with their relatives and friends, with whom frequent personal meetings are impossible, but here they assume the opposite - the substitution of personal meetings with video communication, which is undoubtedly, from their point of view - a minus. The advantages include the possibility of a more careful choice of the interlocutor and voicing the original purpose of communication in the network space, the disadvantages - the probability of behavioral adjustment of both interlocutors, as well as the lack of an opportunity to understand and see the emotions of a person. Practical significance: the data obtained in the work can be used in age psychology, ethno-psychology, social psychology, pedagogy, sociology, as well as for further theoretical development of this issue
