Sounds as if Social Software belongs to interaction design at least according to this rather broad definition:
Five Lenses: Towards a Toolkit for Interaction Design, by Thomas Erickson: “Interaction design has to
do with the design of any artifact, be it an object, system, or environment,
whose primary aim is to support either an interaction of a person with
the artifact, or an interaction among people that is mediated
by the artifact.”
Allusions of activity theory and genre tracing are included in this appeal to establish a conceptual toolkit for the domain of interaction design (or information design or information architecture)
