Walther and Tidwell (1995) address chronemics in e-mail from the perspective of social psychology/nonverbal communication rather than discourse analysis. Baron (2004) approaches instant messenger conversations from a linguistic approach, and found some interesting sex differences regarding length of message turns. Walther, J. B., & Tidwell, L. C.

Can anyone point me to discussions of turn-taking online, particularly via email? I know of Marc Smith's work with newsgroups and 'answer-people', Loch et. al.'s paper comparing online and offline turntaking and Rebecca Warner's work, but that's about it. Any input is appreciated, Many thanks, BERNiE Bernie Hogan PhD Student Department of Sociology NetLab, Knowledge Media Design Institute University of Toronto -- _______________________________________________ The air-l@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org Join the Association of Internet Researchers: http://www.aoir.org/
