In essence, the basic etiquette rules for social networking are no different than those for everyday life - whether it be for:<br><br>- synchronous colocated communication (e.g. F2F meetings and conversations)<br>- asynchronous colocated communication (e.g. posting on a real bulletin board in a real meeting place like the town square - an example used above)<br>- synchronous dislocated communication (e.g. phone, mobile, videophone, IRC, ICQ, AOL, MSN, Trillian, Skype, chat conversations)<br>- asynchronous dislocated communication (e.g. email, SMS, MMS, PMs)<br>- asynchronous colocated communication revisited (web 2.0 simulated virtual meeting places - e.g. online forums, bulletin boards, SecondLife, FB and all the other social and/or professional online communities).<br><br>The technology is different in each case so you have to adapt the details, but all you really need in principle is some common sense and the ability to imagine how you would react if other people did to you what you did to them - a.k.a. the Golden Rule known from most major religions, humanism and other ethical frameworks.<br><br>Now, is it really so that most people simply aren't able to figure this out by themselves?<br><br>Is it REALLY that simple?<br><br>If so, I think a lot of the problems of the world has just been explained... (he added dryly)<br><br>However; I do appreciate that those few people who can combine abstract logical thinking with empathy and social intelligence need to discuss and agree on a consensus since views vary on these technology-specific details. And I guess most of this feedback is part of that process.<br><br>But still - if people really need an etiquette course to use these technologies, then there should be a \"user license\" on par with a driving license.<br><br>My point here is that you can drive a car without a license, if you master the basics of the technology, just like you can use email, FB or SecondLife as soon as you know which buttons to press. But you cannot negotiate complex traffic patterns without knowing the arbitrary rule set governing these patterns, and that rule set has evolved from the consensus of logical abstract thinking about the behaviour of drivers, the physics of driving and the mathematics of traffic optimization.<br><br>And if the similar arbitrary rule set for social networking is getting so complex (due to the heavy traffic) that common sense (as in abstract thinking and empathy/social intelligence) is insufficient, then I think it is pertinent to consider creating a \"social networking license\".<br><br>It might even be a popular approach. Compare this with the \"Microsoft applications license\" or whatever it is called - in some countries this is asked for by employers, as it certifies that the person possesses a minimum knowledge of how to use the most common MS applications like Word and Excel. Or even with the \"sowing machine license\" that I got when I was 11, as part of the class in domestic technologies (as in washing, cooking, sowing etc) at school. Of course we were exhilarated to get a diploma for our efforts!<br><br>And I think that if you need to give a course for etiquette to teenagers, you might as well give them an exam and award them a certificate at the end of it.<br><br>Then I will leave it up for discussion whether it is a bad thing or not that there is no \"traffic police\" that will impound your computer if you are caught socially networking without a license... ;-)<br><br>PS: As technology advances, cars are evolving towards the stage where they are no longer cars but automated transport vehicles where everybody inside are passengers, like on a bus or a train, and all you need to do is enter you destination. At that point, the arbitrary rule set (a.k.a. traffic rules) are no longer needed as such - they are rather implemented directly in the algorithm running the vehicles for optimizing the flow of traffic.<br><br>Perhaps we can envision a day when social networking sites will work the same way - your actions are guided so that you are not able to break the rules and offend others?<br><br>I think not. Just like I don't think we will ever see the day when ALL cars have been reduced to another kind of public transportation. Cars, like social networking sites, are about freedom - even if it is highly theoretical (given the fact that you move faster from A to B using public transportation where you are not the master of your own destiny (as in being the driver) - or in the case of social networking where you end up spending half the day fending off different app requests and so on).<br><br>Queues and spam are very similar phenomena - they occur because of the \"over-popularity\" of a certain communication/information/transportation technology, be it cars, email or social networking sites. The problem with chain letters and spamming your friends with app requests is that they are (half-)deliberate actions by your presumed-logical-thinking-and-empathic cohabitants and so cannot easily be removed by certain rules (as you can do with spam filters or by taking public transportation on dedicated tracks/lanes or at different times to avoid queues). Kind of like when some maniac driver causes an accident with a resulting queue when there shouldn't be a queue normally.<br><br>So you end up back where you started - social networking technologies are about freedom and expression and just like in the rest of the world, you will have the usual percentage of people lacking empathy and/or the ability of abstract thinking, and they will detract from your enjoyment of the site by breaking the etiquette.<br><br>The only way out of this is to shut them out, either by some kind of licensing system (which I think will be impossible), or by the system already in use in many places - invitation-only (or closed) communities with strict moderation. These have two problems - one is that social networking needs to be open to everybody in order to work as intended, and the other one is that moderation/monitoring is both limiting the freedom and simply an impossible task given the amount of data.<br><br>Ideally there would be some kind of self-censoring among the community. This would work if the group of people appreciating and understanding the value of etiquette manages not only to agree on a basic set of rules but also to outnumber those who don't and simply use peer pressure to enforce the etiquette rules.<br><br>Again, this might be exactly what is going on right here in this blog. In any case, I commend you for stating the obvious, kicking in open doors and fighting windmills.<br><br>All my experience tells me it is necessary, as there are way too many people out there who must either lack the ability of abstract thinking and/or empathy, or they simply <br>break the rules against better knowledge (and then I am always curious about their motivation for doing so - I guess I have never quite understood the pleasure of being an anarchist or nihilist, as I prefer working against the second law of thermodynamics rather than with it - I believe it is in the nature of humans to create and restore order rather than destroy it).<br><br>That's my two cents.

I have just started blogging via blogger and wordpress, and have about 12 blogs so I can separate the subjects I am interested. I then run a single stand off blog via wordpress for everything else that is of interest to me.<br><br>What I find is that by using Stumble, Digg etc.. a lot of users simply spam you. I mean - I don\'t mind receiving a shout.. but 12 in a row from a single user is crazy. You then have the issue of shouts only going your network.. but Digg is SO big, that finding relevant people to network with is really hard. The when you do - you get I\'m not adding any right now (basically due to others spamming).<br><br>face book is really enoying. But I must say.. most of my friends are good and don\'t send every bloody app - then then again, I can understand some of them due to the app forcing you to do it if you want to get a result of a test etc.<br><br>I think all this is happening due to the size of the internet, getting noticed is so hard.. and people will try ANYTHING to get noticed. With most people never seeing who their talking to - this gets worse because it removes the social personal touch from the communication.</div>\

So asking people to leave a voicemail if it\'s urgent can be a set up for trouble. <br><br>I have a client that often calls me and leaves a voicemail that says "Hi, it\'s [client].

An analog metaphor would be posting a note in the town square vs. sending you a letter in the mail. As a social person, you may frequent the town square to read and send messages – but it\'s still an indirect form of contact. Many people have SMS/email forwarding enabled for Facebook messages, but that\'s certainly not a given.</div>\

Learning the acceptable protocol across all the platforms can be tricky.  Too bad the respective sites don\'t have a little handy \'how-to\' at the top of that site as a little guidance to newbies or those overly enthusiastic posters.  Personally, I was a bit surprised to see the Facebook posts [at the top of your Facebook profile telling those who visit there what you are up to] showing up elsewhere.

Your newsletters are considered spam by Gmail (I can’t control it, other than saying “Not Spam”). So, a “did you receive” follow up 3 days later is sometimes needed in a time-sensitive context. In fact, you don’t mention this, but having to scrutinize a list of spams several times a day to find the one jewel (your newsletter) is a bigger waste of time than most of your pet peeves :)<br><br>Not only are we all busy, but unfortunately email is getting less reliable as thousands of managers use thousands of spam blocking techniques.</div>\

I always laugh out loud when I get invitations to join a mob, join a drug cartel, or become a knight ... Wow, I never considered those options when joining FaceBook.  On that note, when it comes to FB ettiquette, there also seems to be a trend of tagging anyone and everyone in notes.  This to me seems like blatant promotion, and even though I think social media has slightly different definitions to each one of us, that tactic is one of the things that makes me shy away abit.  At some point it starts to feel like static and often sharply cloaked sales tactics.  I believe there is value in social media, but find it frustrating when it feels like a bait and switch routine.</div>\

Although a bit “Emily Post meets Miss Manners”, and meant for their audience of dating singles, the 10 online community etiquette guidelines are spot on and can be generally applied with slight modification not only to public forums, but closed (business) forums.

I encourage folks to ask themselves - does any one care about what I\'m about to say? Is it relevant to anyone other than myself? I may sound a bit harsh - and sorry if so.

These are really useful tips to keep in mind and to get the ball rolling on considering how we choose to communicate online. <br><br>One thing I would add to the e-mail etiquette is if the e-mail sent/received (depending on who the recipient/sender is) warrants a response, then please take the time to add it into your To Do List to respond.<br><br>I find that I constantly have to chase people up after 48 hours on the e-mail I sent, and then I have to remind them what the e-mail was about in the first place. I think we need to be more considerate of others and realise that we all can\'t be chasing people up as there\'s more important work to be done. <br><br>We would never leave people "hanging" in a phone conversation so why do we feel okay to do it with e-mail? <br><br>If i could I would solve everything over the phone but that isn\'t quite possible these days.</div>\

Folks want to see something interesting about you, not how many flowers you\'re growing.<br>- much like in Flickr comments, it is not good practice to leave bright, flashing, glowing or noisy things on peoples\' Facebook walls.<br>- Consider that not everyone is interested in the latest thing, e.g. money making, click getting,chick wooing, scheme.

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-8523090" class="dsq-comment-message">After reading all this, I have a simple question:<br><br>Everybody\'s praising Chris for (in my opinion) saying the obvious (about web 2.0 etiquette). In essence, the basic etiquette rules for social networking are no different than those for everyday life - whether it be for:<br><br>- synchronous colocated communication (e.g. F2F meetings and conversations)<br>- asynchronous colocated communication (e.g. posting on a real bulletin board in a real meeting place like the town square - an example used above)<br>- synchronous dislocated communication (e.g. phone, mobile, videophone, IRC, ICQ, AOL, MSN, Trillian, Skype, chat conversations)<br>- asynchronous dislocated communication (e.g. email, SMS, MMS, PMs)<br>- asynchronous colocated communication revisited (web 2.0 simulated virtual meeting places - e.g. online forums, bulletin boards, SecondLife, FB and all the other social and/or professional online communities).<br><br>The technology is different in each case so you have to adapt the details, but all you really need in principle is some common sense and the ability to imagine how you would react if other people did to you what you did to them - a.k.a. the Golden Rule known from most major religions, humanism and other ethical frameworks.<br><br>Now, is it really so that most people simply aren\'t able to figure this out by themselves?<br><br>Is it REALLY that simple?<br><br>If so, I think a lot of the problems of the world has just been explained... (he added dryly)<br><br>However; I do appreciate that those few people who can combine abstract logical thinking with empathy and social intelligence need to discuss and agree on a consensus since views vary on these technology-specific details. And I guess most of this feedback is part of that process.<br><br>But still - if people really need an etiquette course to use these technologies, then there should be a "user license" on par with a driving license.<br><br>My point here is that you can drive a car without a license, if you master the basics of the technology, just like you can use email, FB or SecondLife as soon as you know which buttons to press. But you cannot negotiate complex traffic patterns without knowing the arbitrary rule set governing these patterns, and that rule set has evolved from the consensus of logical abstract thinking about the behaviour of drivers, the physics of driving and the mathematics of traffic optimization.<br><br>And if the similar arbitrary rule set for social networking is getting so complex (due to the heavy traffic) that common sense (as in abstract thinking and empathy/social intelligence) is insufficient, then I think it is pertinent to consider creating a "social networking license".<br><br>It might even be a popular approach. Compare this with the "Microsoft applications license" or whatever it is called - in some countries this is asked for by employers, as it certifies that the person possesses a minimum knowledge of how to use the most common MS applications like Word and Excel. Or even with the "sowing machine license" that I got when I was 11, as part of the class in domestic technologies (as in washing, cooking, sowing etc) at school. Of course we were exhilarated to get a diploma for our efforts!<br><br>And I think that if you need to give a course for etiquette to teenagers, you might as well give them an exam and award them a certificate at the end of it.<br><br>Then I will leave it up for discussion whether it is a bad thing or not that there is no "traffic police" that will impound your computer if you are caught socially networking without a license... ;-)<br><br>PS: As technology advances, cars are evolving towards the stage where they are no longer cars but automated transport vehicles where everybody inside are passengers, like on a bus or a train, and all you need to do is enter you destination. At that point, the arbitrary rule set (a.k.a. traffic rules) are no longer needed as such - they are rather implemented directly in the algorithm running the vehicles for optimizing the flow of traffic.<br><br>Perhaps we can envision a day when social networking sites will work the same way - your actions are guided so that you are not able to break the rules and offend others?<br><br>I think not. Just like I don\'t think we will ever see the day when ALL cars have been reduced to another kind of public transportation. Cars, like social networking sites, are about freedom - even if it is highly theoretical (given the fact that you move faster from A to B using public transportation where you are not the master of your own destiny (as in being the driver) - or in the case of social networking where you end up spending half the day fending off different app requests and so on).<br><br>Queues and spam are very similar phenomena - they occur because of the "over-popularity" of a certain communication/information/transportation technology, be it cars, email or social networking sites. The problem with chain letters and spamming your friends with app requests is that they are (half-)deliberate actions by your presumed-logical-thinking-and-empathic cohabitants and so cannot easily be removed by certain rules (as you can do with spam filters or by taking public transportation on dedicated tracks/lanes or at different times to avoid queues). Kind of like when some maniac driver causes an accident with a resulting queue when there shouldn\'t be a queue normally.<br><br>So you end up back where you started - social networking technologies are about freedom and expression and just like in the rest of the world, you will have the usual percentage of people lacking empathy and/or the ability of abstract thinking, and they will detract from your enjoyment of the site by breaking the etiquette.<br><br>The only way out of this is to shut them out, either by some kind of licensing system (which I think will be impossible), or by the system already in use in many places - invitation-only (or closed) communities with strict moderation. These have two problems - one is that social networking needs to be open to everybody in order to work as intended, and the other one is that moderation/monitoring is both limiting the freedom and simply an impossible task given the amount of data.<br><br>Ideally there would be some kind of self-censoring among the community. This would work if the group of people appreciating and understanding the value of etiquette manages not only to agree on a basic set of rules but also to outnumber those who don\'t and simply use peer pressure to enforce the etiquette rules.<br><br>Again, this might be exactly what is going on right here in this blog. In any case, I commend you for stating the obvious, kicking in open doors and fighting windmills.<br><br>All my experience tells me it is necessary, as there are way too many people out there who must either lack the ability of abstract thinking and/or empathy, or they simply <br>break the rules against better knowledge (and then I am always curious about their motivation for doing so - I guess I have never quite understood the pleasure of being an anarchist or nihilist, as I prefer working against the second law of thermodynamics rather than with it - I believe it is in the nature of humans to create and restore order rather than destroy it).<br><br>That\'s my two cents. Looking forward to your comments.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-8523092" class="dsq-comment-message">Great post, Chris! One of the key etiquettes for Facebook I wanted to add was \'Add as friend\' one. If you don\'t know the person that well to call a \'friend\', please don\'t just add without leaving a polite message. It\'s awkward if you don\'t want to add that guy who nods once in a while at you, crossing in the hallway, as your "friend". FB has to find a solution to this one I guess.</div>\

I, too, am irked by people I know rather casually (and certainly those who I have no idea who they are) who don\'t "add a personal message"<br><br>what kind of solution do you have in mind?<br><br>I often message them asking them if the person in common has introduced us and/or recommended us.  I often don\'t get a response (surprisingly) and well - I let it be.<br><br>If I am very close to the connecting person and frequently in touch with them, I often asks them what\'s up with this person and see what they say.</div>\

Right now, Fbook is limited to my personal friends because the professional ones just don\'t need to know that much about me. Do you have two profiles, or have to choose one identity over the other<br>B) the Fbook apps remind me a lot of the jokes and spam email that goes around. Those same people who send around jokes and funny stories via email probably SuperPoke you as well. I usually send a polite "no thank you" not via email. Why can\'t we do that on Facebook as well?</div>\

In the process of trying a few things out, you will sometimes offend a few people. That\'s OK. Making mistakes is how we learn. So if you do make a mistake, know that it is not the end of the world. Hopefully you learned something valuable in the process.</div>\
