It's funny, etiquette is something that can really make or break the process of communication. Online communication, in particular, can be difficult for people because it lacks intonation and body language. It is words and words only (unless you are using podcasts or video), and unfortunately everyone has a different filter through which those words are received. Crafting messages that make the person on the other end feel respected, regardless of content - is always the way to go. Without the "respect" factor, communicating any message effectively is next to impossible. Thanks Michael.

It is very useful for people who have been in the industry, but also for digital natives as most of this technology is new for all of us making etiquette sometimes unclear. Great post.
