I've got a paper to write on Internet speech. Basically anything having to do with how we act or speak with someone on the internet via forums or messaging systems will do. Anyone have any references to something of that sort?

It's about email specifically, but I think any conclusions should work for message boards and IM: <a href="http://www.gsb.uchicago.edu/fac/nichola ... gocentrism Over E-Mail: Can We Communicate as Well as We Think?</a> The gist of it is that most people are worse than they realize at determining and communicating tone over written communication.

Sorry, can't help you there. I'd imagine your eight or so years of posting here are probably inadmissible. ;)
