Hi Michael, The SocialMediaLab package would be highly suited to this kind of data collection, providing you don't mind a little bit of programming :) http://voson.anu.edu.au/SocialMediaLab My colleague Robert Ackland and I have written an "Absolute Beginner's" guide for SocialMediaLab. You might find this helpful for getting started, particularly if you have little (or zero) programming experience: http://voson.anu.edu.au/papers/SocialMediaLab/Absolute_Beginners_Guide_to_So... All the best for your research!

I am currently working on research involving a Facebook group as a sort of virtual ethnography. I was wondering if anyone knew of any researchers who work with archiving Facebook group discussions. I am looking for a way to better facilitate the archiving of my data, as I planned on creating a corpus based on 6 months of discussions within the Facebook group. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Please respond offline to michaeljdeml@gmail.com.
