Here you have some links to some of the things we saw in class last week. Click here for a brief guide to British Etiquette and here for useful tips on the art of netiquette. I hope you like them. Comments welcome!
First time I met these rules during an online master, the person who was in charge of the subject "Virtual scenes of education and knoweldge" had got a lot of nerve, giving us them. At the end she turned out to know nothing about that matter. I'd definitely prefer rudeness than poor man's Audrey Hepburn.
Many of this questions are very interesting to not be a stupid or a total miser in a restuarant or in any public situation. It is true that all this rules are very useful, but what about the etiquette at home? Are english as polite on the bar as in the living room? It is very interesting being polite with people who you don't know very much, but please, be considerate with people who live with you everyday, at work, with your family, friends... This manners are for any case.
I couldn’t agree more with this clever reasoning. Viewing the focus in a positive way, my dad, who had grown up in a tiny village of Palencia, always advised me to say hello to everybody I would meet in the street, even to my worst enemy. I can't infer the meaning from such assertion.
A few days ago I was walking around with my mom and we passed next to the hospital, them a small boy, more or less 7 years old, told us good morning, without knowing us and we really appreciate this gesture of politeness. Unfortunately this is an odd expamplebut might be more common on nowdays.
Nice netiquette links. Everyone could use a little netiquette according to NetworkEtiquette.net. The authority on internet etiquette, netiquette.
