作者：

Highlights：

• The TTF model has its limitation in explaining social networking site (SNS) usage.

• We propose a social/task-technology model to explain the intention to use SNS.

• Social characteristics play a dominant role in evaluating the impact on SNS usage.

• When users consider SNS is useful, they perceived SNS is fit for their social needs.
