New book (edited volume) on CMC

A new collection of essays, edited by Jeannine Gerbault, has just been published by l'Harmattan. The volume puts together selected papers from the international colloquium La Communication Médiatisée par les Technologies de l'Information et de la Communication, which was held in May 2006 at the Université de Bordeaux III, and it includes papers concerning social interaction in CMC environments, applied linguistics studies, and sociolinguistic analyses of computer-mediated discourse. The reference is:
Gerbault, J. (Ed.). (2007). La langue du cyberespace: de la diversité aux normes. Paris: L'Harmattan.
It will also be distributed by Les Presses de l'Université Laval in North America. It is scheduled to appear in bookstores in early January 2008. Check it out if you get a chance.
