The computer age has intensively influenced the language, so that this process is to compare with a revolution. We can see this influence in different spheres; but in various discourses, it is realized differently. In this paper, I present the results of my research, showing the interaction between stylistic execution of a prosaic text and information structuring of some Internet media: of web sites, blogs and chats. Having analyzed some novels of young modern authors Christian Kracht and Daniel Kehlmann, I find out, that they imitate the communication manner of Internet users.
