RESUMO
This investigation aims to describing and analysing how debates carried out by means of the worldwide computer web operate. The corpus encompasses three discussions collected at the Internet, covering different discursive genres (the discussion list, the chat with invited guests and the electronic forum), developed by two large providers used in Brazil, i.e. America On-line (AOL) and Universo On-line (UOL). Besides focusing on the description of the three digital genres selected, the research is centered on the observation of how internet users interact and which strategies are employed by them while debating a specific topic. Within this universe, little do we know of how the argumentative act - essential in the realm of communication - operates. Since interaction is processed via an electronic channel, and speakers are not actually in contact, the argumentative game takes up specific characteristics. Because it presents peculiar production conditions, the speech within the virtual media often requires non-linguistic elements - rather essential in utterances whose functions might be to influence others, show emotion, convince, persuade, etc As is the case in every interactional process, the ones described here cannot be parted from their specific production contexts, thus, this researchs investigation of the digital network, in order to be familiar with this mediator of communication processes and consequent "founder" of several discursive genres - called digital genres.
