Praise for the first edition:"Using a methodology grounded in both linguistics and digital literacies, Barton and Lee provide a valuable introduction to studying language online. They also carefully define terms and concepts that are used in both of these fields and are central to the study of language online – text and practices, among others... This volume will interest those who want to understand how language is changing as a result of new technologies and those pursuing their own research into language use online."A.M. Laflen, Marist College, USA in CHOICE"The second edition of Language Online provides up-to-date coverage of essential topics, methods, and concepts for digital language and literacy research. New directions in the field are presented in a vivid and accessible manner, such as social media and language learning, the impact of algorithms on digital discourse, and the interweaving of on- and offline communication. Inclusive in style and rich in examples, this is set to become a standard textbook for years to come"Jannis Androutsopoulos, University of Hamburg
