    My web site http://devoted.to/corpora gives extensive links to most aspects
    of corpus-based language research. You will find links to corpora, software
    and tools, and also relevant references (see, in particular, the section on
    introductory textbooks, and the links to comprehensive on-line/downloadable
    bibliographies on the field).

    Dave.
