Greetings all!

Are any of you aware of key research/resources related to the impact of
texting and micro-blogging upon writing style and the formation of young
writers?  I am working with a student who wants to do a senior seminar
in that area, and I'd like to get up to speed with the literature
myself.

Regards,

Bernard
