I am still struggling to find a decent book about language and Internet that is extensive enough at least to cover Arabic and Chinese >< Especially how different kinds of Chinese and Arabic are competing with each other online. (Check the discussion page on Egyptian Arabic, you will get the tension there. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Egyptian... ) The following book is useful for overall framework. === Netlinguistics: Language, Discourse and Ideology in Internet (Paperback) by Santiago Posteguillo <http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/176-8288262-8444342?%5Fencoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books-ca&field-author=Santiago%20Posteguillo> (Author) scott@scottmacleod.com wrote:
Great question! Here are two book titles: Crystal, David. 2002. Language and the Internet. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Danet, Brenda, and Susan C. Herring (eds). 2007. The Multilingual Internet: Language, Culture, and Communication Online. Oxford: Oxford University Press. I've also posted these at webnographers.org - http://www.webnographers.org/index.php?title=Books. As a wiki, http://webnographers.org is open to editing by us all. Please add relevant ideas, tools, literature, and directories. Best, Scott http://scottmacleod.com http://worlduniversity.wikia.com
