There is a lot of stuff to be found on the Web

depending, of course, on how broadly or narrowly you define your terms

Anyway, there's for example
stuff of this kind in Journal of Computer mediated Communication, at URL

http://www.ascusc.org/jcmc/

with Sheizaf Rafaeli, School of Business Administration, Hebrew University
of Jerusalem as one of the two main editors -- Fay Sudweeks of Sydney (and
ProjectH main investigator with Rafaeli) is also on the board.

There's stuff in an online issue of Works and Days at URL:

http://www.iup.edu/en/workdays/TOC.html

There are Webbed dissertations:
Kirk McElhearn about Writing Conversation
Holly Patterson about Computer-Mediated Groups
Alejandra Rojo about Electronic Forums

There are xmca people using electronic discussions in their teaching, and
researching that The one I find among my bookmarks is Russ Hunt,

-- there will certainly be others, too.

=2E.. and to the people studying the xlists I would add Peg Syverson , in on=
e
of the chapters in her dissertation. I really appreciated her
texts-writers-readers ecology.
