* Hi Ylva,
*
* Would you mind sharing a bit about your research proposal (whether you're
* trying to obtain funds to create a corpus, and if so, what mediums of CMC it
* would work with, what speaker demographics, etc.)?  I was talking with a few
* of my colleagues over the winter break how convenient a tagged corpus of
* internet discourse would be, and we were considering the logistics of such an
* undertaking - as far as we knew, no such data in English had ever been
* compiled.
*
* Thanks!
*
* All best,
*
* Joshua

* * Hi all!
* *
* * Does anyone of you know of databases of tagged CMC (or ICT or whatever
* * we call it now...) texts written by children aged, say, 5-18? I'm
* * applying for a research grant and need to have a clue whether there are
* * similar databases for languages other than Swedish?!
* *
* * Actually, I'd be grateful to know whether there are any databases of
* * ICT texts at all that are tagged and available in any form?!
* *
* * All the best!
