Netiquette Best Practices: Online Communities

At the time of writing of “Netiquette” and RFC1855 in 1994-95, it would have been difficult to envision the variety of community structures and ranges of participation that characterize the contemporary internet. Despite being written over a decade ago, most of the guidelines remain relevant today; however elaboration is needed to address interactions in the new and emerging mediums of the web, such as social networks, blogs, wikis, and other interactive websites. Examine existing Netiquette guidelines, identifying those that have grown in importance, and propose several new guidelines applicable to these online communities. Provide short explanations for each proposal, citing evidence for its consideration as a “best practice” for the development of and/or interaction within online communities. Include justification for each of your proposals on the basis of ethical principles. DUE FRIDAY 11:30PM

Social Networking

From movies and music videos to "what I ate today ", YouTube has transformed the Internet from the text-based world of the 1990's into the streaming-video fed society that it is today.
With the world watching YouTube on a daily basis, care must be taken in what content is uploaded. You never know when something that you meant for a small audience might end up receiving national attention such as the infamous Star Wars Kid
On the other hand, when you really want to get the word out about something, such as being tasered you really can't beat YouTube. This is especially true if your video is worth giving you 15 minutes of fame.
