Discourse 2.0: Language and New Media

Discourse 2.0 is a new book of linguistic studies of language on social media, published in February of this year by Georgetown University Press.



It is a collection of research that is meant to drive forward the conversation about new media and social interaction. BIG names in the field contributed work including Susan Herring and Naomi Baron (both early computer-mediated communication researchers), Jannis Androutsopoulos and Crispin Thurlow, as well as the widely-published Georgetown locals, Anna-Marie Trester and Deborah Tannen. I hope others in the field find it as useful as I am finding it in my own dissertation research (ESPECIALLY when coupled with Digital Discourse: Language in New Media!)
