The document presents Herring's faceted classification scheme for analyzing computer-mediated discourse (CMD). The scheme categorizes CMD based on multiple facets - technological/medium factors and social/situation factors. Examples of facets include synchronicity, message transmission format, and participation structure. The scheme is intended to facilitate analysis of CMD by allowing focused comparisons within/across samples based on variable dimensions, complementing existing genre/mode classifications. The document provides an overview of the scheme and its facets, illustrates its application, and acknowledges limitations such as difficulty of condensing its structure.
