In this article, which is the result of a master's degree research linked to the Postgraduate Program in Linguistic Studies, at Federal University of Uberlândia, we present some results from the speech analysis that we carried out around the social network Facebook. For that, we use the theoretical-methodological framework of French Discourse Analysis, especially the concepts of genre and hypergenre postulated by Dominique Maingueneau (2006, 2008b, 2010). In fact, what we have been able to demonstrate is that the social network Facebook has a distinct discursive behavior in relation to other websites, implying, thus, new categories of analyzes. As a result, we postulate the concept of a hypergenre system, which allowed us to demonstrate that the so-called enunciatively "freedom" of the Web, at least in relation to this social network, does not apply, since the discursive identity of its pages they are part of a process of legitimation that is not without limits and depends on the relation they establish with what is circulated in them, especially in the form of shares.
