Zusammenfassung:The relationship between communication and development of a territory has been established academically since the late 1960s. The contemporary media context is characterized by the presence of social media, which allows specific reach and communication flows to different social groups. This article aims to verify the potential influence of social media in the process of informational inclusion of the population of the district of Calama, distant 205 kilometers from the capital of Porto Velho (RO). The only physical means of access between the district and the capital is by the river Madeira, with use of boat. In this way, the aim of this work was to know if the arrival of the Internet fulfills the role of inclusion in an isolated community in the middle of the Amazon forest.

It was verified that people seek to be informed of the events of the state and of Porto Velho, accessing news sites and using social networks to, besides knowing the events, produce and share information, which generates some informational integration between the capital and the district.
