Abstract
This paper is based on a qualitative research on subjective training processes in digital social networks. It starts with a fundamental philosophical question: human training in the midst of a highly technological world. The first part briefly explains the conceptual framework from the training-teaching-writing(s) relationship, social studies of science and technology and of material culture, that allow us to speak of the “time of posthumanism.” The second part describes the co-training mechanisms in the new forms of social interaction through technology platforms in the social network Facebook: programmability, popularity, connectivity, and datification, where the agency of humans and non-humans is at stake and where paradoxical informal processes of individual and collective training occur. This new condition leads, in the third part, to revisit the notion of training as a craft in the time of posthumanism.
