Subject: cyberspeak



'Brick reality' is a new one on me. In a collection I am editing on

computer-mediated communication, contributors generally refer to

IRL (in real life), and, in one case, 'meat space'. (The latter term

I think comes from cyberpunk literature.)



None of the papers in the collection deals specifically with cyberspeak,

but the bibliography contains nearly 200 references on computer-mediated

communication. If you contact me privately, Jon, I'd be happy to e-mail

you the bibliography.
