A. The Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handbook

Appendix A. The Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handbook

I originally posted the “Ultimate Social Media Etiquette Handboook” on my blog at techipedia.com[113] in December 2008. It became so popular that I have included it here as an appendix.

Social media mimics real relationships in many cases. Would you do the following in real, face-to-face relationships?

  • Jump on the friendship bandwagon without properly introducing yourself?

  • Consistently talk about yourself and promote only yourself without regard for those around you?

  • Randomly approach a friend you barely talk to simply to ask for favors—repeatedly?

  • Introduce yourself to another person as “Pink House Gardening?”

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, you may need a refresher course on social media etiquette—and perhaps real-life etiquette also. Here are some egregious sins that you must not perform on social media sites. Avoid these violations and learn how to manage and maintain online relationships on a variety of popular social media sites.
