Practicing Good Etiquette In The Digital Era

By:


In just a little over a week from now, the second in line to the British throne, Prince William will finally marry his long time girlfriend Kate Middleton and people all over the world is very much looking forward to the much anticipated royal wedding of the year. Everyone is going to be watching them and it looks like the world is taken in by storm with everything royal. Well, I could not blame them. Wouldn't you want to be a little bit royal at least once in your life? Oh, to be a prince and a princess for a day!

In the truest sense, the thing that makes royalty really royal is on how they actually act out the part. Good etiquette. As we all know by now, royalty is known for their unending protocols, good manners, and right conduct at every given situation. They just seem to know how to do things properly - sit, stand, handshake, wave, and smile. I think that it's very difficult to do unless you were born and raised in that kind of environment all your life, then it will just come in naturally without any effort on your part; a piece of cake.

Just because we aren't of royal blood means we can't have at least some royal manners, right? I mean, we can't possibly be of royal blood but at least we can learn some good etiquette especially in the digital era.

While i was reading Reader's Digest, i found an article that has caught my interest and it's about having a good etiquette in the digital era. Here are some of the questions posted in this article:

Is it appropriate to use emoticons and abbreviations in official e-mail?

Is it acceptable for the boss to send you a text message late at night?

What should you do when your boss wants to befriend you on Facebook?

Should employees be using their mobile phones during a meeting?

Should Facebook or Twitter be a place to (a) start an argument or (b) declare your love?

Can I update my Facebook page or Twitter feeds or reply to an SMS or e-mail, when I am out with my friends?

I'll leave you with these questions on having good etiquette in the digital era to think about and we'll discuss it some more in my next post.
