Language Data Investigation- The Language of Internet Chat Rooms
Description:
‘Internet Relay Chat’ (IRC), created in 1988 was one of the first forms of synchronous Computer-Mediated communication (CMC) where people could ‘chat’ in real time by typing their contributions. Since then, it has been growing rapidly in popularity with the Internet’s general rise in influence during the 1990s.
