My Bloggy Golden Rule

by Teresa Valdez Klein on January 4, 2007

Steve Rubel recently called for better behavior on the part of the blogosphere in 2007. “The world is watching us,” he wrote. “In 2007 our challenge, as bloggers, is to up our game. Let’s skip the name calling and the back and forth cat-fighting.”

I couldn’t agree more. Obviously spirited debates are lots of fun, but perhaps we should keep our blows above the waist.

My blogosphere golden rule is” “If you wouldn’t want it written about you, don’t write it about someone else. If you wouldn’t approve it in your comments section, don’t write it in someone else’s.”
