CBC/Corporati

The Corporate Blogging Corpus (CBC/Corporati) was assembled between early 2006 and late 2007 as part of my dissertation on the style and pragmatics of corporate blogs (Puschmann, 2010). A list of 137 English-language company blogs were selected and categorized by their function and place in the organization (e.g. PR, marketing, company leadership). The blog posts were harvested over a period of 1.5 years using PHP, MySQL and MagpieRSS. Part of speech tagging was also performed, but this data is excluded from this data set. See the included README file and Puschmann (2010; available at http://blog.ynada.com/368) for a detailed analysis of the corpus. NOTE TO THE ADMIN: this data belongs into the category Social Science/Linguistics (presently missing). Please add if possible.
