Netiquette

Netiquette is the rules of proper mannerism when communicating through internet sites,  such as facebook, chat rooms and emails.  Good netiquette is important because it can keep us from making improper decisions of what we can or should post.  It also helps to keep us aware that our own private pictures and conversations can sometimes be used against us.  Others can hack our accounts and take what we thought was private and make it public.  Many people have lost their jobs, family, friends and even money over lack of netiquette. In today's society, many teenagers and even young adults have disregarded netiquette for the sake of being popular or well known.  Sadly, in doing so, they have put their reputations and sometimes even their lives at risk.
