Interpersonal communication is the interpretation of "you" and "me" communicative behavior where personal expressions are closely concerned. Based on network technology and features, Internet with its uniquely online "interpersonal sense" has reshaped the basic perception of time and space in the realm of personal communication. Various network communication tools are not strictly developed in a specific time order, and a series of online interpersonal communication types form and grow naturally one by one. Frankly speaking, it's just a bold attempt to study the basic principles shared by different network-mediated interpersonal communication methods and the features unique to communicative channels today.Moreover, human's everlasting desire for first-hand information and the acquisition of private expression have been pushing the dissemination media forward, and the updating of media technology has constantly encouraged individual's urge to obtain new information and to express thoughts in a more effective way. The expanding needs for latest information maybe partly suppress the personal expression, but not means that self-expression can be completely ignored. Further speaking, in this network-dominated society, the rapidly emerging media technology has neither satisfies the needs of increasingly self-expression nor transferred the traditional interpersonal communication successfully, and it is becoming increasingly apparent under the rise of individualism and we-media.This thesis tries to watch young netizens'(who are selected to represent Chinese's digital-native generation as a whole) daily use of network-mediated digital products and analysis their fixed or changing roles played in online personal interaction. Particularly, the study endeavors to tease out the Chinese network interpersonal communication evolvement molding. The present network-mediated interpersonal communication situation will be profiled in text against the cyberspace. It might be able to provide us an access to discussing the probable interpersonal communication methods in the current and near future.
