Email and forum etiquette

Ever wonder if you’re driving other people batty with your email or forum interactions?

Podcaster Gary Rosenzweig can let you know if you’re putting a foot wrong. Outside of warning people against ALL-CAPS TYPING, WHICH READS LIKE SHOUTING, Rosenzweig notes tips like:

  • quoting only necessary parts of messages in your replies (and none at all in forum post replies)
  • thinking twice before sending large files
  • using clear subject lines
