Abstract

In this paper, we examine the sociability proposal of online communities and their impact on the social interaction among deaf users through a case study of Orkut communities. The results allowed us to verify that the resources offered by the communities, as well as the way used to express them in the interface create challenges for deaf users to socialize in this environment.
