    Hi,

    There is a chapter in Applying English Grammar: Functional and Corpus Approaches (2004, ed. C. Coffin, A. Hewings & K. O'Halloran, London: Arnold; a very useful collection, btw), entitled "Grammar in the construction of online discussion messages", which reports on a corpus study of online conference discussions among university students. Maybe you could contact the authors (Ann Hewings and Caroline Coffin) to find out more about their research and the availability of their CMC corpus.

    Good luck and best wishes... Ute
