This multidimensional study focuses on computer chat, i.e. synchronous and supersynchronous computer-mediated communication, here termed «conversational writing». It employs Douglas Biber’s methodology to compare systematically computer chat to speech and writing, and situates two genres of computer chat on Biber’s dimensions of linguistic variation.
